Share-ify has named Joh Johannsen its artificial intelligence product manager and solutions architect, a strategic addition that the company says reflects its continued investment in building a smarter, more intelligent platform for the food industry.

In this role, Johannsen will help lead the development and execution of Share-ify’s AI product strategy, with a focus on turning complex supply chain data into more actionable insights and more automated workflows for customers, according to a news release. The Orlando, Fla.-based company says the appointment supports its broader commitment to incorporating AI across the Share-ify platform in ways that improve visibility, efficiency, traceability and decision-making for food manufacturers, distributors, retailers and other supply chain partners.

Johannsen is a graduate of Harvard University, where he studied applied mathematics and computer science. Share-ify says he brings a strong technical foundation and engineering experience spanning both high-growth startups and major global organizations, including Journal Technologies, Amgen and Amazon.

His background combines academic rigor with practical product and engineering expertise, positioning him to help translate advanced AI capabilities into scalable tools that solve real operational challenges, the company says.

“Joh’s arrival is an important step for Share-ify as we continue expanding the intelligence and automation built into our platform,” says Ernesto Nardone, CEO of Share-ify. “We are committed to applying AI in ways that create meaningful value for our customers, whether that means improving decision-making, reducing manual work or helping companies respond faster to the demands of an increasingly complex food supply chain. As a fellow math and computer science graduate with a specialty in artificial intelligence from McGill University, I am especially pleased to welcome another mathematician to the team.”

Johannsen has been working with Claude Code since its initial release and has extensive experience across a broad range of AI and large language model tools. Over the course of his career, he has helped experiment with, deploy and refine real-world AI applications across multiple environments and use cases.

Share-ify says this hands-on experience will support its efforts to accelerate AI innovation responsibly and practically, ensuring new capabilities are aligned with customer needs and built for real-world adoption.

This hire signals Share-ify’s ongoing focus on the future of food safety, compliance and supply chain collaboration through technology that is more predictive, more responsive and easier for customers to use, the company says.

As Share-ify continues to evolve its platform, it says AI will play an increasingly important role in helping customers manage product data, identify risks earlier and operate with greater confidence and speed.
