AI solutions & systems integration
Resilient systems.Adaptable thinking.
I’m Kov, Managing Partner at Kahla Labs. I turn business needs into AI workflows, intelligent automation, and connected systems built to adapt.
Good systems don’t stand still. Neither do I.

Kahla Labs is my primary focus. As Managing Partner, I lead AI consulting, solutions architecture, and systems integration—from agentic workflows and LLM applications to intelligent automation and model evaluation.
My background spans defense, energy, commercial real estate, and venture. My previous contract at Airborne Systems ran from February 2025 to May 2026, covering infrastructure and compliance engineering. That experience shapes how I build AI solutions today: understand the constraints, connect the right systems, and make them useful to the people who rely on them.
I’m drawn to roles where I can pair hands-on engineering with clear communication: understand the problem, work through ambiguity, and turn a complex requirement into a solution people can use.

Grounded in systems.
Comfortable with change.
02 —
Connect the dots.
Translate between technical detail and business priorities. Make tradeoffs understandable and bring the right pieces together.
03 —
Build for what’s next.
Think beyond the first working version. Design for reliability, security, and the reality that requirements will change.
