Jason Santiago
Founding Partner. Executive Strategy, AI Architecture & Custom Software
The partner who turns five sets of findings into one strategic plan. And ships the code that runs it.
Quick answer
Jason Santiago is a Founding Partner at Brass & Bench responsible for executive strategy, AI architecture, and custom software. He holds a patent-pending in multi-AI orchestration, has personally architected and shipped more than fifty-six platforms, applications, and AI/ML systems, and has written over one million lines of production code in the last twelve months. On every engagement, Jason builds the working software prototype during the engagement itself. Ownership leaves week two with the tool already running on their data.
Jason is the connective tissue of the team. His background spans executive management, business building, financial structuring, and experiential marketing. The kind of operator who can sit with an owner on Monday, run the numbers on Tuesday, brief the floor on Wednesday, and ship working software by Friday.
He holds a patent-pending in multi-AI orchestration and has personally architected and built more than fifty-six platforms, applications, and AI/ML systems across the full stack. Including the original Strike Quote and Strike List tools that compressed days of quoting and reference work into minutes for WERCS. In the last twelve months alone, he has personally written over one million lines of production code. That throughput is why the custom software and AI automations shipped with every Brass & Bench engagement are not a side deliverable. They are a primary one.
On your engagement, Jason is the partner who connects what the floor is doing to what the financials are saying, designs the AI tools that fix the workflow bottlenecks the team identifies, and translates the entire two weeks of findings into a strategic plan ownership can actually execute on Monday morning. He is also the partner who builds the software during the engagement, not after it. Ownership leaves week two with the tool already running on their data.
He is the secret weapon of the team. Five sets of expert findings produce a stack of insight. Jason is the partner who turns that stack into a binder, a plan, and a working system.
