Our Team

Senior engineers lead the work.

Every Soligence engagement is led by senior engineers. No off-shore handoff. No junior bench. The people who design your AI system are the people who build it, test it, ship it, and stay accountable for whether it works inside the business.

Leadership Team

Adam Granoff, Managing Partner
Adam Granoff
Managing Partner

Adam founded Soligence to help enterprises move from AI experimentation to AI capability they can build, operate, and own. He brings 25+ years partnering with business and technology leaders to turn strategy into enterprise execution — most recently at Microsoft as a Managing Director of Customer Success, where he led generative AI programs from strategy through production and shaped cloud strategy across major Azure portfolios for some of the company's largest global accounts.

Earlier, Adam spent eight years as a Corporate Vice President at New York Life, leading enterprise modernization programs including the integration of a $6B acquisition delivered with zero business interruption during the COVID-19 pandemic. He began his career delivering global technology programs at IBM Global Business Services and Deloitte, and in investment banking at Citigroup.

Adam holds an MBA from Cornell University's Johnson Graduate School of Management and a BS in Computer Information Systems from Indiana University's Kelley School of Business. He holds multiple Microsoft certifications in AI, cybersecurity, and cloud platforms and is a member of InfraGard, the FBI's public-private partnership for critical infrastructure protection.

Engagement leadership

A senior engineering bench built for production AI.

Soligence clients work with experienced practitioners, not a thin delivery layer. The team brings decades of combined experience across enterprise systems, applied AI, cloud platforms, data architecture, product engineering, and operational delivery. They are platform-agnostic — fluent across the major hyperscalers and AI labs.

Architects of Production AI

Senior engineers who design AI systems around enterprise realities — identity, permissions, latency, data residency, auditability, cost, and support. They connect RAG, agents, and model-driven workflows to the systems companies already run: ERPs, CRMs, data platforms, and identity providers.

Hands-On AI Builders

Practitioners who ship working systems: RAG pipelines, agentic workflows, assistants, evaluation harnesses, and user-facing interfaces. They build the controls, feedback loops, and integration paths that turn AI prototypes into adopted products.

Operators & Stewards

Engineers who run AI like production software: CI/CD for prompts and models, observability, eval-driven release gates, drift monitoring, cost controls, and the governance that makes risk and ownership clear inside the business.

Advisory Board

Soligence advisory board extends the firm's perspective on enterprise transformation, technology markets, and regulated-industry execution.

David Castellani
David Castellani
Advisor · Investment Partner, Brewer Lane

David brings 30+ years of enterprise technology and operating leadership across financial services and startups. As SVP and Head of Technology at New York Life, and earlier in executive roles at Prudential and Cigna, he led modernization across digital platforms, data and analytics, and cybersecurity in complex, regulated environments. His perspective helps Soligence ground AI strategy in enterprise reality, risk management, and execution.

He has also co-founded two technology startups — Mi8, an early pioneer in hosted exchange services, and Qv21, a transportation management software provider — giving him experience on both the enterprise and builder side of technology transformation. Today, as Investment Partner at Brewer Lane, he applies that mix of operating and growth experience to portfolio company scaling and technology strategy.

Roxanne Googin
Roxanne Googin
Advisor · Techonomic Futurist

Roxane brings 40 years of front line experience observing how technology improvements impact socio-economics generally. From predicting long term low interest rates and inflation in the 1990s, to calling both the dot com bubble and predicting in 2002 how the wireless internet would emerge from the dot com bust ashes and usher in a new era of growth, Roxane focuses on the more profound and long term effects of disruptive new technologies. Currently, with both deficits and environmental degradation growing at unsustainable rates, Roxane expects AI to replace essentially all workflows developed since automation started in earnest in the 1940s in order to leapfrog productivity enough to sustain prosperity. This will be disruptive economically, socially and politically.

For 23 years Roxane wrote The High Tech Observer, a private service to large investment institutions focusing on the longer term socio-economic impacts of techonomic change, allowing them to take and hold unusually large and profitable positions in emerging companies. Predicting the wireless internet 5 years before the introduction of the iPhone proved particularly profitable. Before that she had extensive manufacturing experience at GE, quickly followed by experience funding the move of that same manufacturing to Asian countries. Now she advises various groups. Roxane earned her BS-EE from the University of Tennessee in 1980 and an MBA from UVA in 1985.
