Tino Noir

One person.
Discretionary time.
Millions saved.

I build custom AI platforms that replace six-figure vendor contracts — then coach the teams to actually use them. Currently displacing legacy tooling at Fossil Group across their global luxury brand portfolio.

“Thank God somebody's thinking like that.”

— Shannon Freeze, Chief People Officer, Fossil Group

Two capabilities. One person.
That's the point.

01 / BUILD

Bespoke Tech & Enterprise Automation

I build internal web applications, dynamic campaign engines, and Google Workspace backends that replace legacy vendor bloat. No SaaS subscriptions. No agency retainers. Custom-built, owned by you, integrated into your existing stack.

Human-Centered AI Enablement

Technology only works if people use it. I run 1-on-1 coaching, team upskilling programs, and operational adoption strategies that turn AI from a pilot program into an everyday capability across your workforce.

Fossil PKE Intake Portal & Campaign Engine

How one internal build replaced an entire vendor pipeline.

Product Knowledge deck creation and campaign localization across Fossil Group's luxury brand portfolio took 45–75 days per launch. The process depended on agency retainers, manual cross-team reviews, and fragmented tooling that bled six figures annually.

hourglass_top

Manual, slow intake

Product Knowledge content ran on disparate spreadsheets — 45–75 days per build cycle, every season, across multiple brands.

Two people supporting global learning modules across Emporio Armani, Diesel, Fossil, and more — with no automation in sight.

Asset bottlenecks

Builds stalled waiting on late photography, studio assets, and finalized marketing copy. No visibility into what was outstanding or from who.

visibility_off

Org silos, zero visibility

Cornerstone LMS and Product Knowledge assets sat disconnected from the commercial and sales org. No executive dashboard, no cross-functional alignment.

content_copy

Redundant content creation

Creative, Merchandising, Sales, and L&D each built their own decks, line sheets, and catalogs from scratch — duplicating effort across every launch.

From fragmented to streamlined.

Every touchpoint below is real. Tap a step to see what actually happened there.

Old Way 45–75 DAYS

Without a design manager or dedicated production staff, all creative, project management, and execution labor fell to two Senior Instructional Designers — one supporting Fossil, Fossil Outlet, and Watch Station, the other supporting all 8 licensed brands.

New Way < 2 MINUTES

The new architecture converts a fragmented, vendor-heavy relay race into an automated engine that generates 3 immediate deliverables and dispatches 2 automated notification emails.

I engineered a full-stack PKE Intake Portal using Google Apps Script, Gemini AI, dynamic HTML5/CSS3/JS, and a Google Sheets backend — replacing the entire external workflow.

The system features automated intake processing, dynamic story cards with live content previewing, asset upload tracking with real-time dashboard visibility, automated SCORM package generation for Cornerstone LMS integration, and a custom localized Translation Memory engine for multi-market deployment.

One source, many outputs — a single intake generates the SCORM package, product catalog, and sales-ready materials. Built once, reused everywhere.

“In Tino's discretionary time, he decided there's got to be a better way. Thank God somebody's thinking like that.”

“This to me is such a lift. It's taking their work and pulling it right into the application. It makes it so much easier.”

“He's done phenomenal work to build this on his own discretion. I want to maximize it.”

“I am literally speechless at some of this stuff that people don't know exists.”

Audit

I map your current workflows, vendor stack, and team capabilities. I find where custom AI platforms replace cost and friction — and where your people need enablement to actually adopt what gets built.

Architect & Build

I design and deploy bespoke platforms — web apps, automation backends, content engines, executive dashboards — integrated into your existing infrastructure. No SaaS licensing. No agency retainers. You own everything.

Enable & Scale

I coach your people 1-on-1 and in teams until AI stops being a project and starts being how they work. The system works because adoption is built into the build — not bolted on after.

I'm Tino Noir — 15+ years across creative direction, UX, instructional design, and enterprise technology. Currently Senior Global Instructional Designer at Fossil Group, where I architect AI-driven automation platforms and learning systems for a portfolio of global luxury brands including Emporio Armani, Diesel, Michael Kors, and Armani Exchange.

I sit at the intersection of technology and human behavior. I build the systems that save enterprises millions, and I make sure the people who need them can actually use them. That combination is rare — most builders don't teach, and most enablement leads don't build.

Let's talk about what you're building.

If you need someone who builds enterprise AI systems and makes sure your teams actually adopt them — I'd like to hear about the problem.
