Leadership
Emeka Iwuagwu.
Founder / Managing Member, Aletheia Labs LLC
Software engineer and founder with a track record of building systems for regulated environments: e-signature and security platforms for commercial banks, distributed ledgers, and the infrastructure that keeps them running.
Profile
The person answerable for the work.
Emeka Iwuagwu founded Aletheia Labs to bring a builder-operator model to public-sector technology: the people who design a system are the people who run it, document it and answer for it.
His work has centered on systems where failure is expensive. In banking, that has meant replacing commercial e-signature subscriptions with an in-house platform, and putting security and operations tooling into production at Nigerian commercial and development banks. In distributed systems, it has meant designing consensus, execution and finality for new blockchain networks from the protocol layer up.
Alongside Aletheia Labs, Emeka is the founder and managing director of ORQELIS, a European technology services company, and leads engineering across the Kortana ecosystem. Contracting officers and partners deal with him directly, from first conversation to closeout.
