Displace Technologies

Security programs and AI systems that survive contact with reality.

We build security and compliance programs, production AI infrastructure, and revenue-driving ML systems for companies where failure has actual consequences. Not demos. Not decks. Working systems.

What We Do

Three practices. One philosophy: build systems that work under pressure.

01

Security Program Buildout

We build security and compliance programs from zero — or mature what you have — for companies preparing for audits, acquisitions, or their first enterprise customer.

SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI-DSS, SOX, NIST framework alignment
Board-ready security maturity scorecards
Fraud prevention and automated threat response
Team structure, hiring plans, and vendor selection
Engagements from $15K · Retainers from $15K/mo
02

AI Revenue Architecture

We design and build AI/ML systems that directly drive revenue — dynamic pricing, demand forecasting, operational optimization. Not strategy decks. Working systems connected to your P&L.

Production ML pipelines tied to revenue metrics
Ensemble model design for pricing and forecasting
Self-hosted inference for data-sensitive operations
System architecture through deployment and monitoring
Engagements from $25K · Retainers from $20K/mo
03

AI Infrastructure & Operations

For companies moving from API calls to self-hosted AI, or struggling with reliability in production agentic systems. We architect, deploy, and stabilize the full stack.

On-premise and private cloud inference deployment
Agentic orchestration with durable execution (Temporal)
Policy-as-code enforcement for AI outputs
Model evaluation, selection, and optimization
Engagements from $20K · Advisory from $5K/mo
Track Record

We don't do demos. We do outcomes.

Enterprise Security

Security program from zero to SPAC/IPO-ready in 14 months

Re-established security as a discipline during post-COVID restructuring, building the entire team and program from scratch — PCI-DSS, SOX, ISO 27001/27002, NIST compliance, fraud prevention, and board-level reporting — while simultaneously managing infrastructure and engineering teams.

Marketplace Platform

Built ML pricing systems managing $2B+ in annual revenue

Led data science, ML engineering, and data platform teams that designed and shipped dynamic pricing ensembles, revenue prediction models, operational scheduling optimization, and feature identification systems. Multiple systems were subsequently patented.

Agentic AI Platform

Self-hosted inference + Temporal orchestration in production

Deployed and stabilized a multi-model agentic SDLC platform running local inference on NVIDIA hardware, with durable workflow orchestration and policy-as-code output enforcement. Diagnosed and resolved a 24-hour agent failure caused by model misconfiguration.

Who We Are

Senior leadership,
hands on keyboard.

Displace Technologies is led by Eric Mann — a twenty-plus year engineering veteran who has operated at every altitude from writing kernel-level debugging scripts to presenting security maturity scorecards to boards of directors.

VP of Information Security and IT at a marketplace platform through their $4.4B IPO — managing engineering, data science, security, infrastructure, and enterprise finance teams. VP of Engineering at Rebellion Defense building systems for DoD environments. Author of the O'Reilly PHP Cookbook. PHP 8.3/8.4 Release Manager. Builder of threshold cryptography custody systems, agentic AI platforms, and production ML pipelines.

When you engage Displace, you get the person who has done the work — not a junior associate reading from a playbook.

Displace CLI & MCP Server

Our Kubernetes deployment automation tool — available as a CLI for human operators and as an MCP server for AI agents. Simplify cluster provisioning, monitoring setup, and multi-environment management.

# Install
$ curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/displacetech/displace-cli/main/install.sh | bash

# Set up your local cluster
$ displace install

# Or connect your AI agent via MCP
$ displace mcp serve
Let's Talk

that actually works?

We start every engagement with a 30-minute discovery call. No pitch. No deck. Just a conversation about your problem and whether we're the right fit to solve it.
