United States
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJay Yeras is a Senior Domain Expert Solutions Architect specializing in Applied AI and customer experience, with 25+ years of hands-on experience across AWS, Genesys, Snyk and multiple startups. He builds production-ready AI and cloud architectures for large-scale contact centers, bridging generative/agentic AI, security, and operational readiness to drive measurable business outcomes. A founder and former VP/CTO, he repeatedly scales partner ecosystems and global CX teams while keeping innovation moving through market shifts—skills he credits to running both Fortune 100 engagements and scrappy startups. Jay emphasizes reusable frameworks, readiness assessments, and technical standards so each engagement compounds into lasting capability rather than a one-off “checkbox” project. He pairs deep Amazon Connect domain expertise with developer security and cloud strategy to turn technology from a barrier into an enabler of growth. Less obvious: his background ranges from Air Force paralegal work to adjunct teaching, giving him uncommon strength in governance, process, and cross-functional leadership.
