Andrew Zeneski
Builder · Investigator · Problem Solver
I have spent over 25 years building, debugging, and fixing production software. I co-founded Apache OFBiz, have shipped platforms across retail, healthcare, education, and finance, and currently operate AI systems in production. I solve the problems that matter, the ones that are hard to find and affect real people. Security is the backbone of every solution I build.
My Practice
Fault Line Security
Investigative technology consulting. I find the fault lines in systems, diagnose the root cause, and fix the problems that matter. For founders and teams who are stuck and need someone who can actually figure out what is wrong.
Background
I started building e-commerce systems in the late 1990s. In 2001, I founded the Open For Business project, which later became Apache OFBiz. I contributed the service engine, workflow engine, web controller framework, and e-commerce catalog management system. That project is still in active use at organizations worldwide.
Since then, I have designed and delivered production platforms across industries: clienteling systems for national retail brands, a mobile POS deployment for the Indianapolis 500 supporting 250+ simultaneous devices, AR-powered NFT auction platforms, and scalable microservices architectures for multi-location businesses.
Currently, I serve as CTO and CPO of POSTPALS, an AI-powered educational platform for children. I operate generative AI image pipelines using fine-tuned LoRA models, build MCP-integrated content systems, and manage production ML infrastructure on AWS under COPPA compliance constraints.
