David Alves Independent software, product, AI

Independent software, product operations, and digital technology

Independent software with product and operational depth.

I build software with a bias toward clarity, execution, and systems that hold up under real use. My background spans Siri localisation at Apple, digital development work at ADB, AI platform and product operations at Flexibits, multi-country operations at Shell, and self-directed products built from the ground up.
