A well known consultant in the Aviation Aftermarket Industry with over 20 years in business operations and software technology, Paul has a knack for innovative approaches to solving daily business problems. Paul founded Ambry Hill Technologies (AHT) because of a deep-seated belief that the Aviation Aftermarket Industry is ready for a simplified, user friendly and intuitive business software solution that helps solve one essential problem: An unmanageable volume of requests for quote (RFQs) caused by decentralized and non-standardized inventory marketing platforms. Based on this insight, he believes the industry is in desperate need of a software provider who can solve this logistical roadblock, and is genuinely interested in customer success. As CEO of Ambry Hill Technologies, and as a cheerleader for Aviation Aftermarket Industry innovation, he is the driving force behind the disruptive and cutting-edge software solutions that AHT offers.

Originally educated in Biology and Petroleum Exploration Geology, the oil industry downturn in the early 1990s prompted Cole’s shift to a 30 year long career in software. For a stretch in the 90s, he worked in Federal Government Accounting software systems, before joining a major Aerospace ERP company in 2000. For the next 18 years he held many technical roles in that company, culminating in a multi-year stint as CTO. In those years, he became known in the Parts Trading and MRO Software community. He was pivotal in the introduction of a new online aftermarket inventory listing service to the marketplace; one which upped the ante with respect to how tightly such services could be integrated to back-end inventory software systems. He further helped ERP software owners maximize the value of their software investments, by providing tools to easily interact with services like Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) with the Spec2000 standard, and offering modular, turn-key web portal systems which allow ERP owners to publish information directly to their customers via the Web.

In the years immediately prior to joining Ambry Hill, Cole worked in an academic informatics leadership role at a major pubilc research university. This allowed him to further explore cuttingedge methodologies and technologies, including artificial intelligence and machine learning, and the application of blockchain technology for solving real world problems in data privacy and security.

In his role at Ambry Hill, Cole brings his creativity and many years of experience in the Aerospace ERP arena to bear on the Parts Trading/MRO industry’s perennial challenges. He is also excited to have the opportunity to apply powerful current technologies, like Deep Learning in Convolutional Neural Networks, and Smart Contracts on next-generation Blockchains, to design the future of technology in Aerospace business systems leadership will continue to have a positive impact on the offerings from Ambry Hill to the Aviation Aftermarket community.
