Drake Wildes — Solutions Engineering Candidate (Connected Operations | IoT | Fleet Technology)

Turning real-world operational complexity into clear, actionable SaaS solutions.

What I Do

I help connected-operations and industrial SaaS teams bridge the gap between noisy physical environments and clean, decision-ready insights.

With a background in diagnostics, fleet technology, and high-stakes industrial workflows, I bring a grounded approach to technical discovery, solution design, and customer communication. I focus on translating operational data and system behavior into workflows leadership teams can trust.
