About Faqir Ahmed
Faqir Ahmed is Chief Technology Officer at CVP (Customer Value Partners). Location: Washington DC-Baltimore Area, United States.
I build safe, reliable, and practical AI systems for government missions. As CTO at CVP, I led the creation of Fifer—an enterprise GenAI platform with strong security, governance, and observability—and FiferDEV, an AI-powered SDLC platform that compresses multi-week delivery cycles into hours while honoring federal compliance requirements. My background combines hands-on LLM engineering (Claude, GPT, LLaMA, Gemini, Mixtral), solution architecture, and forward-deployed delivery in federal environments (HHS, CMS, DHS, VA, DOL, DOS, NIH). I hold a DoD Top Secret and multiple public trust clearances and have driven $400M+ TCV in wins by utilizing innovative technical solutions for operational government outcomes. Safety-by-design is fundamental to my approach: policy enforcement at prompt/response layers, auditability, budget control at the token level, and interpretable, multi-agent RAG knowledge bases. I’m experienced with LLM evaluation and responsible AI practices aligned to federal guidance, and secure deployments on AWS, Azure, and GCP. FiferDEV impact (representative): - 50% development productivity increase - 38% testing time reduction via auto unit/integration/E2E generation - 60% reduction in security issues via NIST 800-53 checks - 40% faster onboarding for new engineers Active DoD Top Secret clearance Fifer website: https://fifer.io/
