Simplifying complexity for executives, architects, and AI-enabled teams.

Thomas Elliott

I’m a technology leader with over 25 years of experience turning complexity into clarity. From my early days at Nortel to technical leadership roles at CENX, Ericsson, and Amdocs, I’ve helped organizations scale systems, modernize infrastructure, and bring AI capabilities into production.I specialize in making architecture inspectable, explainable, and supportable, with a deep respect for non-functional requirements like performance, resilience, and observability.This site is an extension of the philosophy behind my book — Your Augmented Life — a belief that working with intelligence, not against it, unlocks better outcomes for teams and organizations alike.
