Nick Carter

Eighteen years in engineering leadership, most of it in regulated medical devices — Becton Dickinson and Dexcom. Director-level, managing managers. But I'm hands-on with AI. Not advising from slides. Building real systems, shipping real products, and figuring out what works by doing it.

I'd rather be an individual contributor at a company that takes AI seriously than a director at one that doesn't. What I really want is both — a hands-on leadership role where I bring AI fluency to the job and help teams who are struggling to adopt it find their footing.

What makes me different is the intersection. I know what it takes to keep medical device software audit-ready under IEC 62304 and FDA oversight. I also know how to build AI agent systems, design context architectures, and ship creative work through AI-augmented pipelines. Most people have one of those. The combination is rare.
