Founder & CEO at Delivery Layer | ex Nielsen P&L owner | ex unicorn SaaS VP of Data | Host of the Data That Drives Revenue Podcast

I'm a long-time data leader, currently leading ReportingApplications.com, a consulting company focused on building - you guessed it - Reporting Applications.

Why Reporting Applications?

Because they’re tricky to build in ways that most companies don’t realize until they are live with customers and dealing with unexpected business problems.

We believe there’s an art to building great reporting applications, but not many people have focused on this area deeply enough to become experts.

By working with us you can benefit from our many years of lessons learned.

---

Prior to starting ReportingApplications.com I was the founder of Delivery Layer - a SaaS product that powered customer facing reporting applications.

Before that I was VP of Data Strategy at Helium 10 where I led all things data (Data Engineering, Data Science, Data Product Development and Analytics). I previously ran product & analytics with P&L responsibility for Nielsen Sports, the global leader in Sports Sponsorship data.
  
Early in my career I ended up with the mix of statistical, business analysis and programming skills that would turn into the ideal background for a data scientist. Since then, I've been leading data teams, building data products and running data businesses.

My philosophy is that data isn't the hero - it's the sidekick. It's only valuable if it improves the lives of your customers, or helps someone make better decisions.

Get in touch if you need to build a reporting application!

And connect and follow along for lots of content around data leadership, becoming a better data person, and (of course) Reporting Applications.

Founder & CEO

Delivery Layer is a platform that powers revenue generating data through web applications and APIs that deliver your internal data to customers and partners.  
  
We dramatically improve time to market for data products. Enterprise scale products can launch in under a quarter, and consulting project front-ends can ship in days.  

This is only possible because we focus exclusively on applications that deliver your internal data to customers (as opposed to when customers send data into your systems).
  
Our pre-built infrastructure and unique battle-tested experience allows us to move at blazing speeds.

Three calls this week. Same story every time. Candidates joined new companies and quickly realised:

>ARR - Non existent
>Product market fit - “What is that?”
>Team culture - Non existent
>Role scope - Nothing like what was sold

Somewhere along the way, certain companies decided it’s acceptable to bend the truth to land talent.

Short term, you fill a role.
Long term, you burn trust, cash, and end up rehiring.

Good candidates aren’t scared of messy, early stage problems.
They’re allergic to bullshit.

If it’s chaotic, early, and still finding PMF, just say it.

The right people will still join. 💡

Frontline workers power the global economy, yet most AI tools were never built for them.

On the latest ThinkData Podcast, I sat down with Arjun Vora, Co-Founder of Teambridge, to explore how AI can actually enhance the lives of shift-based and hourly workers.

Arjun’s experience designing Uber for Drivers sparked a simple but overlooked insight: the people doing the most operationally critical work often have the worst software.

We talk about:
 • Why frontline teams have been ignored by tech
 • What “AI that actually helps workers” looks like
 • The real challenges of scaling a two-sided workforce platform
 • Where the biggest opportunities lie over the next few years

If you’re building AI for real-world operations, or hiring teams that don’t sit behind desks, this one’s for you.
