Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolCharles West is a founder and principal consultant with 12 years of experience building production-ready generative AI systems and moving organizations from experimentation to measurable adoption. He led company-wide Claude Code deployments at Stardock, achieving 70% adoption across a 50-person team, and engineered multi-backend inference, RAG, and on-device LoRA workflows that enabled real-time dialog and asset generation on resource-constrained hardware. His industrial engineering background drives a focus on process redesign and quantifiable outcomes—adoption rates, throughput, and time-savings—rather than just tool rollouts. Through AI Integration Advisors he packages pragmatic service tiers and custom integrations, and is currently applying real-time phone agents to improve access for elderly care and local government. His broader portfolio includes NASA-funded autonomous navigation and novel solar sail materials, showing a rare mix of ML production chops and physical-science program management. Based in Novi, Michigan, he combines deep model engineering (llama.cpp, VLLM, PyTorch, hnswlib) with a proven track record of scaling AI into everyday workflows.
