FOUNDER & PRINCIPAL
04 / YOUR PARTNER
Executive perspective.
Engineering instincts.
I’m Darin Gilbert. I bring 28+ years of technology leadership to the work of making complex change achievable.
My experience spans enterprise infrastructure, cloud platforms, consulting, and global operations—with leadership roles at organizations including CoBank, Empower, TTEC, and CloudHesive.
I’m comfortable shaping a multi-year strategy with executives, working through architecture with engineers, and helping teams turn that direction into reliable delivery. That combination keeps the advice grounded in what it takes to execute.
Through Cerebral Solutions, I bring that experience directly to leaders who need a thoughtful partner, clear decisions, and progress they can see.
