Senior🎓
Top SchoolDulan Dias is a CTO and founder with 9 years of experience building AI-first, production-grade systems that prioritize rapid deployment and operational scalability. He blends a PhD in Data Science & AI with hands-on engineering, having shipped mobile-first, edge-optimized web apps, backend services, and CI/CD infrastructure for museum-focused visitor experiences. At Tellme he architected a centralized Aggregation & Observability Platform and a rule-based RAG Prompt Engine to turn research models into repeatable, low-cost rollouts across cultural venues. Earlier, as co-founder of EchonLabs, he delivered large-scale bespoke software for 1,000+ bank branches and introduced a low-code configurable app framework to accelerate delivery. Dulan’s approach is unusually user-centric for an ML leader—he conducts on-site usability studies with museum visitors to directly inform product–market fit and performance tuning. He pairs academic rigor with practical product instincts, consistently turning complex AI prototypes into efficient, production-ready services.
