Tommy Findlay, CEng

Background

I am a Chartered Engineer with a background in manufacturing, process improvement, and technology implementation. My career has taken me from the production floor through to board-level advisory, giving me an end-to-end view of how organisations work and where technology creates value.

I founded iS3 after repeated experience of the same problem: businesses investing in Ai and automation without the operational foundations to make it work. The result is always the same: tool sprawl, unclear ownership, unmanaged risk, and technology that the team does not trust or use.

iS3 exists to fix that, with the governance, structure, and implementation discipline to make Ai a working operational asset.

What I Do

I work with leadership teams to design and implement Ai and automation that is safe, auditable, and built to last. My approach draws on Lean Six Sigma delivery methodology and ISO management systems thinking. Every engagement starts with process clarity and ends with a governed, operational system that the client's team owns and can sustain.

I also provide fractional CTO and Chief Ai Officer support for organisations that need senior technology and governance leadership without a full-time hire.
