About

Robert Sher

Chief Digital Transformation Officer, and a hands-on builder of AI and automation for distributors and product businesses.

Robert Sher is a hands-on technical product leader who builds AI and automation for distributors and product businesses. He serves as Chief Digital Transformation Officer, the hands-on product and engineering lead, for a confidential client in industrial distribution.

In the past year he took that client's e-commerce, EDI and ERP-integration platform from plan to production, shipped a consumer AI coaching app through the App Store and Google Play, and built an agent platform that keeps a log of what its agents do.

He writes the plan, builds it, and measures it, and he shows the checks before anyone relies on the result. He works remotely across the continental US and takes selected engagements.

How he works

  • Every check is shown to fail when it should, before a passing result is trusted.
  • The diagnosis, the plan and the change each go to a reviewer whose job is to prove them wrong.
  • Reports are in plain English and say whether the goal was met, not only whether the code runs.
  • A person approves every purchase and every quote.
