Keller Tech is the consulting practice of Ricky Keller: sixteen years of production engineering, an AI rollout led across a 40-engineer org at a Fortune 50 bank, and two AI-native apps shipped solo since. The strategy stays connected to the code.
Engagements are hourly or project-based, sized to the problem. Every one of them is delivered by the person on this page, not handed to a bench.
Tool rollouts that stick: Copilot, Cursor, and Claude across real engineering orgs. Acceptable-use policy, code-review integration, and the training that makes adoption hold. Comfortable in regulated environments.
LLM features in production, model migrations on live systems, CI/CD, and modular architectures that survive change. Built hands-on and measured by delivery output, not slideware.
Fractional leadership for growing teams: direction, hiring, and delivery metrics from someone who stays in the code. Experience scaling a fully remote org past 120 people for Fortune 500 clients.
Keller Tech builds consumer apps through its studio, Banked Embers. The studio work keeps the consulting honest: every recommendation comes from patterns we run in production ourselves.
