V2 AI has appointed Arseny Chernov as Director, Forward Deployed Engineering – Applied AI, as the consultancy continues building out its Singapore presence.
The company said the appointment follows its earlier announcement of a Singapore regional hub, established in July, and comes as organisations in the region look to deploy AI systems beyond pilot projects.
Chernov has held senior roles at Google and Databricks, and most recently served as HashiCorp’s regional director for ASEAN, Korea and Greater China, where he led technical teams and worked with customers on security, governance and regulatory practices, according to the company.
At V2 AI, Chernov will support customers in Singapore and South-East Asia, with responsibilities including AI architecture, forward deployed engineering, secure multi-agent workflows, and addressing data, governance and infrastructure challenges involved in scaling AI deployments.
“Organisations are moving beyond AI experimentation, but getting from a promising prototype to a reliable enterprise solution requires strong data foundations, robust architecture, co-design with security and governance, alongside with uncompromising focus on measurable business outcomes,” Chernov said.
V2 AI Managing Director Hannah Williams said the appointment was intended to strengthen the firm’s engineering capability as enterprise AI adoption increases across Asia-Pacific.
