What is arloid.

Sergey Shalunov is a serial entrepreneur who led the development and digitalisation of a number of commercial buildings in Russia and the Middle East. Sergey holds a Mechanical Engineering degree and prior to his time with digital technologies, he worked in research and development in nanotechnology, specialising in composite materials based on copper and aluminium powders.

Sergey became involved in the field of Internet of Things (IoT) back in 2006. It all started with the equipping of his house with a wired Smart Home system, which then transformed into the development of wireless IoT devices. Sergey began to look for IoT and AI applications in real estate on a large scale. This led to the creation of specific IoT kits, one for energy and the other for insurance.

Sergey began work on the concept for a super app for building facilities management and for the building users which led to his current project, an AI solution for automatic HVAC management. The Super App has been put on the back burner while Sergey works on the HVAC AI but will be further developed in the future. Sergey conceptualises, draws and describes all elements of product design from screens and dashboards to the device exteriors. He conceptualises the setting specifications including how the components work and communicate with each other. He ensures the team understand how everything should function and oversees the implementation of the design, including the testing of the completed products with customers.

Prior to leading Arloid as a Chief Product Officer, Vladimir executed strategic and business development initiatives as part of Arloid’s IoT project. Before that he was part of an energy strategy consulting firm, working on large scale research and consulting projects for international energy companies and government bodies. He holds a bachelor’s degree in Business Studies from London Cass Business School and is responsible for ensuring that Arloid’s AI aligns with customer needs, as well as driving sales, marketing and partnership efforts globally.
