What if the key to solving some of tech's biggest problems has been overlooked because of outdated hiring practices?
My guest is Tara May, CEO of Aspiritech, a multi-million dollar tech services company with one incredible stat: her entire team is made up of 100% autistic talent.
We explore how autistic talent is solving big tech problems for clients like Bose and the TSA:
- Building Smarter AI: How her team annotated 280,000 luggage images to train the AI that secures our airports.
- Perfecting Products: The unique QA testing process that ensures Bose speakers work flawlessly.
- Securing Financial Tech: Making JP Morgan's digital platforms accessible and compliant for every user.
This is more than a story about inclusion. It’s a playbook for building a smarter, more adaptable, and more human company.
