I turn complex AI capabilities into enterprise products and deployed solutions—connecting product strategy, system design, customer delivery, and measurable business outcomes.
Roger Simões is an AI Product & Technology Leader based in Aracaju, Brazil. His work spans enterprise GenAI products, reasoning models, industrial AI delivery, and nine years of computer vision in production. He is the author of Reboot Work (2026, ISBN 978-6501957760) and Empregos Humanos em Tempos de Robôs (2024, ISBN 979-8224964611).
Four ways to work with me directly, as a contractor or through an employer of record. Each one draws on work I lead today.
Leadership teams that want to know where AI pays off before they commit budget.
Companies building an AI product or platform without a senior AI product leader in place.
Industrial and mid-market companies with an operational problem that AI can measurably improve.
Investors, developers, and governments planning AI data center capacity.
A selection of products and systems that show how I connect product leadership, technical depth, enterprise delivery, and commercial judgment.
AI Product
“A framework becomes valuable when people can use it repeatedly.”
As Head of Product at the Straits Institute for Applied AI, I own product strategy, roadmap, and go-to-market for AI+ Pro, a professional AI platform used by enterprises, institutions, and the public sector. I helped turn the PRISM structured-prompting framework into a templated, model-flexible product integrating foundation models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and open-source providers.
Reasoning Models
“Evaluation turns frontier capability into a product decision.”
At Eigenform, part of the Straits AI Group, I lead product for self-improving reasoning models. The models form hypotheses, write code to test them, evaluate the results, and retrain, leaving a verifiable reasoning trace at every cycle, with formal verification in Lean. I own product definition, evaluation criteria, roadmap, and positioning, and work directly with research and engineering. The flagship deployment is in mineral exploration.
Enterprise Delivery
“The work is not finished until it operates in the real environment.”
As CTO of Timberstone, an enterprise AI delivery practice, and of ConstruLabs, its construction AI spinoff in Ecuador, I lead discovery, solution architecture, build, and production deployment for industrial clients in steel, cable manufacturing, construction, logistics, seafood processing, and cold chain. We turn operational problems into computer-vision, predictive-maintenance, RAG, and automation systems that run in live operations.
Computer Vision
“Production experience changes how you design every new AI system.”
At Roeye, I led the development and long-term operation of a real-time computer-vision platform for retail analytics. The product ran on customers’ existing camera infrastructure and was deployed and supported for enterprise clients in Brazil and international markets—experience that continues to shape how I approach reliability, integration, and adoption.
Agents & Memory
“Building creates sharper product judgment.”
Selected hands-on projects keep product judgment close to the technology. darwin-memo is an open-source Python library for self-curating LLM-agent memory, with an MCP server and benchmark suite. Superior Trade explores autonomous natural-language-to-verified-strategy workflows, achieving 97.43% intent accuracy in its test set and supporting five-year backtesting.
Commercialization
“Technology creates value only when it connects with real demand.”
Across Good Monster, Redwire, and international partnerships, I have led digital-product, innovation, growth, and go-to-market initiatives for B2B and consumer organizations. That commercial background complements the technical work: shaping value propositions, aligning stakeholders, opening markets, and connecting AI products with real demand. Infrastructure and government partnerships remain part of this broader ecosystem experience.
How AI Redefined the Management Model
How AI Redefined the Management Model
Organizations have poured over $100 billion into AI adoption — and most have little to show for it. Reboot Work proposes a fundamental inversion: instead of asking humans to learn how to use AI, place an AI orchestrator at the center of workflow coordination. Introducing the O.P.U.S. Framework — a complete management architecture for the AI age.
