Our Team
People Who Build Things
Our team brings hands-on experience from the factory floor, the data centre, and the research lab. We hire practitioners, people who have built, deployed, and operated manufacturing systems, not just studied them.

Advisory
Advisors
Ahmad Khan
Advisor | Enterprise AI Adoption & Digital Workplace Strategy
Ahmad Khan advises Iteranium on enterprise AI adoption and digital workplace strategy. His career spans nearly a decade inside J.P. Morgan, Bank of America, and Goldman Sachs, three of the world's most demanding financial institutions, where technology must perform at global scale under close regulatory scrutiny. He has helped these organizations through major workplace transformations, from the move to Microsoft 365 and cloud collaboration to the enterprise rollout of Microsoft Copilot. He pairs technical ownership with commercial discipline, managing budgets for large migration programs and cutting more than $380K a year in licensing and maintenance costs across a Microsoft 365 estate of over 110,000 users at Bank of America. Ahmad's counsel shapes how Iteranium takes AI from pilot to production in regulated enterprises, with security, governance, adoption, and cost accountability built in from the start.
Sherzod Abdullayev
Advisor | Digital Commerce & Growth Strategy
Sherzod Abdullayev advises Iteranium on digital commerce and growth strategy. A direct-to-consumer operator with more than eight years in the field, he built and scaled CraveFancy to $3 million in revenue across Shopify, Amazon, TikTok Shop, and Etsy, with full P&L accountability spanning forecasting, cash flow, and the financing of growth. He scaled paid acquisition across Meta, TikTok, and Google to support $20K to $50K in daily revenue while holding blended customer acquisition cost under $25, steered by a disciplined program of more than 40 conversion experiments. He has also advised more than 2,000 e-commerce clients on growth, paid media, and operations. With early roots in enterprise IT at Revlon and CAA South Central Ontario, Sherzod helps Iteranium turn digital platforms and AI into measurable commercial growth, grounded in acquisition cost, conversion, and margin.
