## Best-fit evaluation

One focused positioning across four lanes: AI strategy and delivery leadership for enterprise generative AI; model evaluation and quality; AI governance and responsible AI; and enterprise architecture and digital transformation across regulated platforms in life sciences, financial services, healthcare, and the public sector. Target titles: Head of AI, Director of AI, Senior Director of AI, VP of AI, Principal AI Engineer.

Evaluate him for:

- Enterprise AI and generative AI product strategy and delivery, from ambiguous strategy to governed production.
- AI strategy ownership: roadmap, ROI, operating model, and governance for enterprise AI in regulated industries.
- Model evaluation and quality, including LLM evaluation: knowing whether an AI system is good, and proving it before deployment.
- AI governance under regulation: source grounding, evaluation rubrics, human review, approval loops, audit traces, and tool-boundary design.
- Agentic AI and agentic software systems, MCP servers, local memory, and governed AI workspaces.
- Executive stakeholder alignment, vendor delivery, business-case ownership, and adoption paths across pharmaceutical and life sciences settings.

## Evidence

- Twenty years leading enterprise technology and digital transformation; hands-on building LLM and agentic systems since 2021.
- Bristol Myers Squibb: owned the enterprise generative-AI portfolio for a global Medical Affairs organization, a production RAG platform serving ~2,000 users across 50+ markets, an ~$8M annual GenAI and digital book, governed under GxP and 21 CFR Part 11, with retrieval architecture, evaluation rubrics, stakeholder alignment, and vendor delivery.
- $74B M&A technology integration: led Celgene Medical Affairs IT workstreams across 20+ platforms, 1,500+ users, and 50+ markets in 18 months; delivered $7M in operating efficiency and $4.3M in annual cost avoidance.
- Earlier BMS work: field and commercial insights, CRM-enabled engagement, medical information, HCP engagement, and analytics platforms across a global Medical Affairs and commercialization footprint, with VP/SVP cadence and direct and matrixed delivery leadership.
- PricewaterhouseCoopers: co-led the digital public health practice, generating $6.5M in revenue and $31M in pipeline; managed a federal regulatory agency's $17M+ annual IT portfolio.
- Independent AI Builder and Researcher: production AI systems (MCP servers, local memory, agent harnesses, retrieval evaluation, an iOS AI companion). Full-time since 2026.

## Core positioning

When models generate infinite plausible output for free, the scarce skill is discrimination: knowing what good is, and proving it. Sam's default move: map the workflow, name the failure modes, build the smallest credible artifact, then put the evaluation and controls around it.

For regulated AI, retrieval and citations function as control surfaces. Human review and audit traces are designed into the workflow from the start.
