THE FIRM

The firm.

wesolutions is a sovereign engineering firm built by engineers, scientists and consultants from the world's leading AI laboratories and consulting firms to serve the Gulf's most consequential institutions.

FOUNDING STORY
EST. 2024

wesolutions was founded in 2024 by a small group of senior engineers from Palantir Forward Deployed Engineering, McKinsey QuantumBlack, BCG X and Google DeepMind. Each of them had spent the previous decade shipping AI systems for sovereigns — and each had reached the same conclusion: that the Gulf's sovereign AI ambition was being underserved.

The large global consultancies sent strategy. The Silicon Valley vendors sent licenses. The local boutiques sent juniors. None of them sent the senior engineer who would still be at the desk in week eleven.

We relocated. The founding team moved to Riyadh and Abu Dhabi. We hired the first cohort of GCC-national engineers — the wesolutions Academy — and we paired each of them with a senior lead from week one. Two years later, the firm has thirty-eight senior engineers and principals, one hundred and twenty Academy engineers in active development, six regulated entities across the GCC, and a single operating model: senior engineers in the room, alongside the local engineers who will inherit the work.

We are an engineering firm. We are a Gulf institution.

OPERATING MODEL

wesolutions is an engineering firm. Our senior leads share economic interest in the firm, sign our code of conduct, and are personally accountable to every client engagement they sponsor. We do not operate a pyramid. We do not subcontract our engineering. We do not bill juniors as seniors. When you contract with wesolutions, the senior lead whose name is on the contract is the senior lead in the room.

GOVERNANCE

Leadership Council

Chair, Vice-Chair, and the founding and elected senior leads of the firm. Meets quarterly. Sets the firm's strategy, risk posture and code of conduct.

Independent Advisory Council

Five to seven independent advisors drawn from former ministers, central bank governors, sovereign-fund CIOs and academic chairs. Convenes biannually.
