// Systems Thinking • Built × Operated

Randolph Hernandez

(AI + Innovation) × (Events + F&B + Hospitality)

I build AI platforms, and I run the operations they live in. On paper my career reads like two careers: an AI platforms architect and a hospitality operator. In practice it is one discipline, systems thinking, applied in two very different environments: from a family of production MCP servers, local LLMs, and the first company-wide AI agents in hospitality, to Formula 1 Abu Dhabi race weekends, the Expo 2020 Closing Ceremony, and award-winning F&B venues. Based in Abu Dhabi, UAE.

I started in technology, recruited into engineering at MTV and Viacom, then a startup CTO who raised $3M and filed two US patents. I then spent a decade running hospitality and events at scale, using the venue as a laboratory: building POS systems, dashboards, IoT water systems, and eventually the first company-wide AI agents to solve problems I could feel because I was standing in them. Today I run RandomSynergy, my AI platform studio, alongside operations roles at Ethara / Yas Marina Circuit, Levels AV, and Project Hospitality Solutions.
