# Matt Blocha **Applications** — Tulsa, OK, United States > I help companies get technology decisions right when the stakes are high - due diligence, M&A, ERP/CRM overhauls, and interim CTO/CIO leadership when there's no time to get it wrong. Over 25 years in technical leadership and operations, with 20+ transactions across PE and VC-backed companies - leading technical due diligence, IT strategy, and post-close execution. AWS Certified in Data Analytics. Deep experience across cloud SaaS architecture, Agile/Scrum/Lean delivery, telecom and data infrastructure, and managed services. I currently run virtual and interim/bridge CTO/CIO engagements - due diligence, ERP/Salesforce/ServiceNow assessments, operations audits, and market analysis for clients who need a technology partner they can trust with the answer, not just the process. I also still build. I design and operate production AI infrastructure - a multi-provider AI gateway routing across OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and xAI, plus the consumer and SaaS products built on top of it. That hands-on work keeps my advice current instead of theoretical. My mission: build the right technology for the client's actual budget and strategy - not the vendor's.
