Summary
Jeremy Salazar is a senior solutions consultant and founder with 11 years of experience building customer-focused SaaS and AI tooling, currently splitting time between leading product strategy at Applied Systems and co-founding Blackman AI, a mission-control platform for managing multi-agent AI deployments. He combines hands-on web development roots (Dev Bootcamp) with sales and customer-success leadership at companies like Zendesk and Talkable, enabling him to translate technical capabilities into measurable client outcomes. Jeremy has a strong entrepreneurial streak—he founded an e-commerce brand, opened a NYC office for Talkable, and now shepherds guardrails, routing, and budget controls for AI agents. His background in communication and business (USC; MBA from Quantic) helps him frame complex technical tradeoffs for nontechnical stakeholders. Based in Edgewater, MD, he is practical about production concerns and unusually focused on the operational governance of AI systems rather than just model performance.
