Founder & Chief Executive Officer · Sigilith
Syed Tasdid Azam Dhrubo
Runs an AI platform in production inside a Canadian telecom, and is building Sigilith around the governance discipline that kept it there.
Syed leads Sigilith's product direction, AI governance, and commercial strategy. He is concurrently AI Product Manager at an Indigenous-owned AI organisation in Canada, where he took an AI platform from inception into production for TELUS, now in daily use by more than a thousand employees at the telecom.
He previously led Google Maps transit-data processing across Bangladesh, and built an EdTech platform for the University of Alberta's Pharmacology department.
His discipline is the one this market demands, AI product management and AI governance: shipping systems whose decisions an institution can still defend months later. That requirement is the thesis Sigilith is built on, and it governs both the platform and Sentry.

Co-authored with the founding team
Work that went through review together.
Syed is a co-author on these 2 papers with both other founders. A team that has already published together is a different proposition from three people who met at a pitch event, so it is worth stating rather than leaving to be inferred from three separate CVs.
The company
What Syed is building.
Sigilith is the authorisation layer for AI decisions. Regulated companies can’t ship AI into decisions that matter, because they can’t prove afterwards what happened. We sit in the path: the decision doesn’t go out until it’s policy-checked and sealed.
Two products run on that idea: the platform, which seals consequential AI decisions as they are issued, and Sentry, an eKYC and fraud decisioning system for regulated onboarding.
