About Our Guests

When Thomas "T-Rob" Robinson joined Domino Data Lab eight and a half years ago, the company was focused on helping pharmaceutical companies and financial institutions build better AI models. With a background in math, computer science, and enterprise finance technology, he understood that the hardest problems in AI weren't about algorithms - they were about enabling domain experts to build trustworthy systems at scale. Meanwhile, Joel Meyer was at the Department of Homeland Security, leading their first AI task force and grappling with fundamental questions about how government could effectively adopt AI technology. Joel, like a number of government-to-startup guests before him, recognized a vendor that held the potential to address the very problems he was working from the inside. Today, T-Rob and Joel are working toward the shared vision of bringing enterprise-grade MLOps to critical national security missions.
