Leads Octopus’s product vision and roadmap. He comes from years of hands-on production operations in manufacturing, which is where the idea started: a team of AI agents that understands how a business works before automating it.
Poctus is the startup behind Octopus, the agentic layer for manufacturing. We combine hands-on production experience with AI systems engineering.
Leads Octopus’s product vision and roadmap. He comes from years of hands-on production operations in manufacturing, which is where the idea started: a team of AI agents that understands how a business works before automating it.
Leads Octopus’s architecture: the coordination layer, the agents and the integrations with ERP, CAD and MES. He brings years of experience building AI systems and integrations that run in production inside real companies.
Orders, BOMs, jobs, suppliers and departments: Octopus starts from problems we lived first-hand, not from a theoretical use case.
Delivery notes into the ERP, BOMs from AutoCAD, machine monitoring, supply chain: every agent comes from a process manufacturers run every day.
Octopus is switched on, measured, and grows by adding agents. No custom build to redo for every client.
You can’t meaningfully improve a process you don’t understand.
AI isn’t the goal. Measurable operational improvement is.
Every business has its own processes, people, constraints and exceptions. The solution has to fit that reality, not the other way round.
Go-live isn’t the finish line. The business keeps changing, so the intelligence has to keep learning.
