In this episode, host Samuel Matthew sits down with Siva Chidambaram, VP of Cloud, Data & AI at Trellix, to unpack what it really takes to scale AI in a private equity–backed SaaS environment. Siva reveals how his team deployed 100 AI agents in 100 days, balancing speed, value creation, and disciplined execution. He breaks down the difference between building flashy AI and building functional, governed systems that accelerate EBITDA outcomes. From federated governance to invisible AI adoption and the reality of curating unstructured enterprise data, this conversation provides a clear blueprint for leaders who need AI transformation to move fast—and deliver results.
