Leone Lage Perdigão

help scaling tech companies turn AI from buzzword into business value. With 12+ years in software engineering and 5+ years leading AI/ML initiatives, from architecture through production deployment, I bridge the gap between technical possibility and commercial reality.

My background spans enterprise AI strategy (PostNL, IBM), cloud platform architecture (AWS, Azure, GCP), and hands-on delivery across GenAI, LLMs, MLOps, and agentic systems.

I hold an MSc in AI from the University of Bath and have led teams across R&D, prototyping, and AI governance.

Companies that benefit most from my expertise: B2B tech scaleups adopting AI for the first time, companies struggling to move from PoC to production, and teams navigating EU AI Act compliance. I%27m particularly effective when the challenge sits at the intersection of technical architecture and business strategy — where you need someone who can talk to both the board and the engineering team.
