## About

Tenacious Intelligence Corporation is a boutique AI engineering and staffing firm headquartered in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, serving technology companies on the US East Coast. We provide AI consulting, AI outsourcing, and AI training , three services built around one goal: getting organisations from AI ambition to measurable business outcomes in weeks, not quarters.Our engineers do not come from a job board or a shared talent market. Every engineer in the Tenacious pipeline was developed through 10 Academy — a programme founded in 2017 that has received nearly 5,000 applications from 19 countries, trained engineers from across Africa, and placed 95% of graduates into global-level technology roles within 12 months. From that pipeline, Tenacious applies an eight-stage selection process with a pass rate below 5%. The result is a team that meets the engineering standards US technology companies already work at — without the management overhead typically associated with offshore delivery.Every outsourcing engagement includes a guaranteed 5-hour overlap window with the US East Coast, a dedicated project manager, weekly syncs with transparent reporting, built-in quality control reviews, a replacement guarantee at no extra charge, and a minimum of $1 million in insurance coverage. All costs are consolidated into a single monthly invoice. Tenacious was co-founded by Arun Sharma — a Cambridge and University of Waterloo graduate with over 20 years of delivery experience across Africa, including a $10 million global science forum covered by The Economist, BBC, and The New York Times — and Dr. Yabebal Fantaye, a PhD cosmologist from the International School for Advanced Studies in Italy, WEF Young Scientist, and former Head of Data Science at Adludio in London, where he built an AI team from zero and delivered an 18% margin improvement worth over $2 million.
