Summary
Clive Boulton is an Advisory Specialist and seasoned software architect with 12+ years of experience designing resilient, distributed systems and shipping ERP and manufacturing software across more than 20 countries. Trained in AI engineering and steeped in control systems, he blends applied control theory, privacy/IP expertise and secure multi-party cryptography to solve complex traceability and FDA/FSMA problems. He has led product and R&D teams from startup CTO roles to corporate labs, built content-addressable blockchain storage on Hyperledger Sawtooth, and remains an active contributor to the Hyperledger Architecture Working Group. Comfortable moving between research engineering and hands-on delivery, Clive also mentors AI practitioners and shapes privacy/confidentiality best practices that bridge academic rigor and production constraints. Based in the Greater Seattle Area, he brings a rare combination of industrial control experience (early career RTOS and robotics work) and modern cloud-native, open-source blockchain craftsmanship.
