PLCs.ai welcomes Brian Tessier as an advisor to stay grounded in real manufacturing.
Brian Tessier, former VP Innovation at Schneider Electric, joins PLCs.ai as an advisor, bringing deep experience from the production floor to the executive suite.
PLCs.ai has added Brian Tessier as an advisor. Brian previously served as VP Innovation at Schneider Electric, where he worked closely with our cofounder Zohar starting in 2019.
Why Brian
Brian has deep experience driving innovation across global manufacturing environments. He understands the engineering level, the production cells, the control systems, and the real operational complexity inside manufacturing.
Brian will help us stay grounded in real operational challenges, and make sure our product and our messaging reflect what manufacturing actually needs.
We are excited to have him in the room as we build.

PLCs.ai is heading to Automate 2026, and skipping the booth.
We do not have a booth and we are not chasing badge scans. We want to talk to the engineers and plant managers living downtime every day.
PLCs.ai raises a $4M seed round to make PLC code universally accessible.
The round was led by Avila VC, with participation from Ocean Azul Partners, Sugar Free Capital, and ICI Fund.
Why industrial AI must understand the entire production line, not just one PLC.
Production lines are rarely single-vendor. A stopped machine on an Allen-Bradley PLC can be waiting on a permissive that only makes sense once you look at the Siemens PLC next to it. What mixed-vendor line context means, why it is different from simply supporting multiple PLC vendors, and how AI can trace a fault across both sides of that handshake.
