Mobility and IoT were always closely tied for us. We were among the first to properly connect bikes, track data, and build something real out of it. We didn’t just talk about it, we actually made it work in the field.
During the recon bike project, we had to figure out what tech made sense for a specific job. It wasn’t just picking parts from a list. It meant sitting down, understanding what’s reliable in the heat, in the sand, under pressure, and what’s going to fail after two weeks. That’s not something you learn from documentation. You figure it out the hard way.
As a CTO, I had to balance budget and performance constantly. Sometimes I had to say no to the better solution, even if it annoyed me. And yes, I had to play the business role, make decisions, manage people, report stuff. But deep down, what always pulled me in was the tech itself.
That was the part that kept me going. Not the titles, not the meetings, just making the thing actually work.
