The company said Thursday it will use Ayyar’s experience in AI, machine learning and national security to provide strategic direction to Serco.
Ayyar is a retired brigadier general in the U.S. Air Force. He was commander of the 305th Air Mobility Wing at McGuire Air Force Base in New Jersey. He also led the USAF Recruiting Service as well as the Combined Joint Interagency Task Force 435 in Afghanistan.
Before he founded percipient.ai seven years ago, he served as president and CEO of Sevatec, an IT company now known as Octo.
“We are excited to welcome General Ayyar to the Serco Inc. Board of Directors,” Serco Inc. CEO and previous Wash100 awardee Tom Watson remarked. “His unique blend of military leadership and entrepreneurial success in the technology sector makes him an outstanding addition to our board.”
