HunterBerge.
I take products from first commit to first customer — and build the teams that keep them shipping.
Senior engineer, engineering manager, and two-time founder. Ten years across computer-vision hardware, multi-tenant SaaS, and AI platforms, most recently leading engineering at DeleteMe.
Things I’ve built
Lot Spot
Computer-vision IoT sensors for parking and mobility. A patented ML pipeline hitting 99.7% accuracy at 0.9 W with 11× less compute than existing solutions, streaming hundreds of millions of data points over MQTT into a multi-tenant analytics SaaS.

Graduate of the #1-ranked startup accelerator in the US. Refined positioning and pitch alongside partners from Sequoia Capital.
U.S. State Department
Sent to Vietnam to help lead an innovation & technology conference, nationally covered and recognized by the Prime Minister.
Slit-image ML classification
Patented computer-vision method that reduced video-labeling time from about an hour to under thirty seconds.
Founder first, engineer close behind
I’m an entrepreneurial engineer based in Colorado. For the past decade I’ve alternated between founding companies and leading engineering teams: writing the first line of code, hiring the people, and staying accountable for what actually ships.
Bootstrapping Lot Spot taught me resourcefulness and resilience; four years at DeleteMe taught me how to scale architecture and people at the same time. Today that experience is pointed at HeyLilo — AI-native software for the appointment-based businesses that still run on pen, paper, and phone tag.
