Daniel Noel
Fractional CTO · Cloud Architect · AI Engineer
I'm a Fractional CTO based in Austin, TX. I build production AI systems, scale platforms to millions of users, and lead the engineering teams behind them. I'm the Founder of Loji, Co-Founder & CTO of Ashore App, and Founder of TavernScribe. Previously Cloud Engineering Team Lead at Chatbooks, where I operated a production Kubernetes platform serving millions of users.
I care about building AI responsibly, keeping user data private, designing for real measured outcomes, and knowing when a simpler solution serves people better than a complex one.
