About Samuel Malkasian

Samuel Malkasian is Chief Technology Officer at bindl inc. Location: West Des Moines, Iowa, United States.

My work centers on building tools that help people and organizations do their most important work better. That includes bindl, a case management platform that strengthens how homeless shelter networks support vulnerable individuals and families. It also spans secure cloud infrastructure and AI models built for reliability in real-world use, from core platform architecture to open-source tools for AI workflows and integration. As a Cyber Warfare Officer in the U.S. Army, I help plan operations and lead training that equips allied forces with critical capabilities in a complex digital environment. I work to communicate technical efforts clearly, building the understanding and trust that missions depend on. My background spans machine learning and data science, with earlier studies in theology and ministry. I build technology to serve people and strengthen the work that matters most, with attention to the ethical and human dimensions behind the systems we create as AI and other complex technologies advance.
