Summary
Adarash Mishra is a founder and fractional CTO with 14 years of experience helping mid-market companies integrate AI into products and operations through audits, rapid prototypes, and hands-on implementation. Based in San Francisco and an alum of the University of Michigan, he bridges product, cloud engineering, and technical leadership to deliver practical AI roadmaps and 1–3 week prototypes that de-risk investments and avoid costly rewrites. He has led cloud and IoT efforts—building the foundational Whisker Cloud and earlier 3D printing and fleet-tracking platforms—while also teaching full-stack engineering to cohort-based students. Comfortable wearing many hats, he’s advised startups and served as a fractional tech leader, focusing on architecture, vendor selection, and shipping the right features fast. Not obvious from the title: he’s run customer discovery and NSF I-Corps style validation, conducting 100+ interviews to align technical strategy with real market needs.
