Zenika Singapore is expanding its leadership bench with two major appointments: Seet Teck Kiang as Head of Business and the return of Michael Isvy as Head of Engineering. The dual hires signal a decisive push to scale the company’s AI Multiplier Framework across Asia and strengthen its position as a high-performance AI engineering partner for enterprises.

The move comes as organisations across the region shift from AI experimentation to full-scale AI integration. Zenika wants to position itself as the firm that helps them cross that gap — not with hype, but with disciplined engineering, pragmatic strategy, and cloud-native execution.

Scaling Zenika’s AI Multiplier Framework

Seet Teck Kiang brings more than 20 years of experience across Asia’s enterprise and public sectors. His background spans leadership roles at ThoughtWorks, EPAM Systems, and Zühlke Group, where he drove platform modernisation and complex transformation programmes. At Zenika, he will focus on extending the reach of the company’s AI Multiplier Framework (SHAPE × SHIP × SYNC), a model built to unify product engineering, AI-enabled delivery, and resilient architecture.

Seet says Zenika’s culture of engineering excellence and its structured approach to AI were key reasons behind his decision to join. He sees the framework as a practical path for organisations seeking long-term AI value, rather than short-lived pilots.

Engineering Returns to Its Roots

Zenika is also welcoming back a familiar face.
Michael Isvy — one of the early contributors to Zenika Singapore’s foundation — is returning to lead engineering and AI strategy. His role focuses on scaling augmented development practices, standardising AI workflows, and integrating responsible AI into everyday delivery.

Michael’s career spans both the French craftsmanship tradition and Singapore’s rapid innovation culture. This blend allows him to bridge methodologies and foster cross-border collaboration. His mission is to turn Zenika Singapore into the company’s AI engineering “living lab,” closely connected with technical teams in France.

By operationalising AI at scale, Michael aims to make AI more dependable and accessible for engineers and enterprise clients. His mandate includes accelerating adoption of augmented development, improving efficiency in delivery pipelines, and ensuring that AI remains a value generator rather than a costly experiment.

A Unified Push Toward Regional Expansion

Timothée Dufresne, Managing Director of Zenika Singapore, says the dual appointments position the company for the next decade of growth.

“Seet strengthens our business strategy and regional presence, while Michael elevates our engineering and AI capabilities,” he said. “Together, they will shape the next chapter of Zenika Singapore and Asia.”

With AI investment rising across Southeast Asia — and organisations seeking structured frameworks rather than scattered pilots — Zenika’s sharpened leadership focus comes at the right moment. The company is betting on disciplined engineering, repeatable AI models, and cross-market collaboration as the formula for sustained transformation.
