Our Mission

We're building the infrastructure layer for the next thousand production ML teams.

Machine learning has an operations problem. Every team ends up rebuilding the same stack: schedulers, registries, feature stores, monitoring. Technovaa exists so you can spend your time on models — not YAML.

Founder

Beckett Hayes

Founder & Chief Executive

Beckett spent seven years at scale-ups shipping recommendation, computer vision, and NLP systems into production. Along the way he watched the same infrastructure problems get rebuilt at every company — badly. He started Technovaa to fix that once, well, for everyone else.

He splits his time between the Fairhaven HQ and customer sites. Before Technovaa, he was Head of ML Platform at a public logistics company, where he led a team of 22 engineers running 400+ models across seven regions.

How we work

Four principles. That's the whole culture doc.

Ship weekly.

Every engineer deploys to production in their first week. No exceptions, no ceremony.

Own the outcome.

The person who wrote the code is the person the customer calls when it breaks.

Boring tech, bold ideas.

PostgreSQL, Go, and Python. We save our creativity for the product.

Write the memo.

Six-page memos over slide decks. Long-form writing is the tax we pay for clear thinking.

The team

Small, senior, distributed.
