What technical leaders say

Real feedback from CTOs, architects, and developers who've worked with me on consultation and training engagements.

training

"Dayal's Hyperledger Fabric training transformed how our development team approaches permissioned blockchain. His real-world examples and hands-on approach cut our learning curve by months."

Senior Architect

NPCI

training

"The best AI prompting workshop I've attended. Dayal doesn't just show you what to do—he explains why it works and how to adapt it to your specific use case."

Research Lead

IBM Research

training

"Finally, blockchain training that focuses on implementation over theory. Dayal's course is the gold standard for a reason."

Developer

Central Bank of Nigeria

consultation

"We were six months into blockchain evaluation and getting nowhere. Dayal's consultation gave us clarity we couldn't get internally. His use case framework showed us we didn't need blockchain for 80% of what we were planning. Saved us from a $2M mistake."

CTO

Multinational Logistics Company

consultation

"Dayal's AI integration consultation transformed how we approach product development. Instead of bolting ChatGPT onto everything, we now have a strategic framework for where AI adds real value."

VP of Engineering

SaaS Startup

consultation

"The blockchain architecture review Dayal provided for our payment network was invaluable. He identified scalability issues our team had missed and proposed solutions we're still implementing two years later."

How We Work Together

From strategy to production

Most organizations fail with emerging tech because they build the wrong thing brilliantly. I help you validate your approach first, then train your team to implement it correctly.

01

Consultation

4-8 weeks

Validate your approach before investing millions in implementation. Architecture design, platform selection, use case assessment, and production-ready roadmaps.

Knowledge Transfer

2-5 days intensive

Accelerate your team with immersive, project-based learning on the validated architecture. Real-world scenarios, live coding sessions, and production-ready starter kits they can deploy immediately.

The Story Behind the Work

From developer to trusted advisor

Innovative and results-driven Chief Technology Officer with 11+ years of experience designing and delivering enterprise-grade Blockchain and AI platforms across finance, energy, worktech, and education sectors.

My journey started at Snapper Future Tech/IBM where I developed GoLang chaincodes and led the SnapCert credentialing solution linking universities on blockchain. Then at HCL Technologies, I established a Blockchain CoE and led the development of an NFT-based painting auction platform.

At Information Data Systems (IDS), I led the design of the Bharat Blockchain Network connecting 100+ universities and Polyversity, India's first university metaverse. I also spearheaded energy-sector AI implementation for sustainability tracking.

Now as CTO at 1*Works, I'm leading technology strategy for an enterprise-grade DAO platform integrating AI, Blockchain, and Tokenized Workforce systems—driving AI-powered modules like Talent Discovery, Knowledge RAG Engine, and WRKS Token governance.

"Most organizations approach this backwards—they train teams first, then discover their architecture won't work. I've seen this cost companies 6-12 months and hundreds of thousands of dollars."
