03 — The team
Eight people. Six countries.
Every name here is a person you will actually work with — the one who scopes your project is the one who builds it. Full introductions come with the first call.
🇺🇸Jonathan EdwardsChief Executive OfficerAustin, United States
Sets company direction and owns every client relationship end to end. Spent a decade shipping enterprise platforms before founding maxIEI around a single rule: promise less, deliver more.

Owns architecture, engineering standards, and technical review. Believes a system is only finished when the next engineer can understand it without asking a question.

Runs positioning, content, and campaigns — then builds the pages and tracking behind them. The rare marketer who ships his own landing pages and reads the analytics he instrumented.
🇫🇷Ekaterina MerkulovaDeveloperIvry-sur-Seine, France
Runs infrastructure, CI/CD, monitoring, and the threat model. Reviews every permission boundary before a system is allowed near real customer data.
🇧🇷Leandro BarcelosDeveloperSão Paulo, Brazil
Builds the pipelines, warehouses, and reporting layers that make the rest of the stack useful. Believes most AI problems are actually data problems wearing a costume.
🇯🇵Ryoji NagasawaDeveloperOsaka, Japan
Builds the retrieval pipelines, agent graphs, and evaluation harnesses behind our AI work. Treats every model output as something that has to be measured, not trusted.
🇵🇭Carmela FloresDeveloperManila, Philippines
Owns the design system, accessibility, and the last five percent of polish. Argues — usually successfully — that a confusing dashboard is a broken dashboard.
🇲🇾Robert EngDeveloperJohor, Malaysia
Designs the APIs, data models, and job systems everything else stands on. Has a long-running grudge against any endpoint that fails quietly.
