Robert Kelly — CTO
As VP of Innovation at Liatrio, my focus is bringing modern technology practices, AI-driven capabilities, and product thinking into large enterprise organizations - especially those navigating complex transformation journeys. I’ve always believed that innovation doesn’t come from just chasing shiny tech. It comes from creating the right conditions: high-performing teams, great developer experience, strong feedback loops, and platforms that remove friction. That’s where I spend most of my time; understanding how changes in technology will improve enterprise organizations, enabling engineering teams with these changes, and building systems that actually scale to deliver value. My background is in software engineering and delivery, and I’ve spent much of my career working with large, regulated enterprises — large banks, healthcare orgs, airlines — helping them modernize how they build and ship software. Today, AI is a key part of that story, and I’m focused on making sure our clients and teams can leverage it responsibly and effectively. At Liatrio, we’re building a future where AI-native software development, platform engineering, and enterprise enablement come together to unlock new possibilities for every organization. If you’re on this journey or curious how AI can drive this change, I’d love to connect.
