Advisory
Advisory for AI-enabled delivery and engineering organisations that need to scale.
I work with CTOs, founders, CPTOs, and engineering leaders on two connected problems: establishing an AI-enabled software delivery model and redesigning the broader operating model when growth exposes structural friction.
Primary focus
AI SDLC Advisory
Move from individual AI assistance and disconnected pilots to governed, measurable software delivery practices that fit your products, risks, architecture, and teams.
- AI SDLC Diagnostic
- Workflow and opportunity mapping
- Enablement for engineering teams and leaders
- Pilot design, governance, and measurement
- Ongoing transformation advisory
Broader advisory
Engineering Operating Model
Improve how strategy becomes decisions and delivery when the organisation’s current structure, ownership, architecture, and leadership cadence no longer fit the next stage.
- Engineering Operating Model Diagnostic
- Strategy-to-execution and delivery flow
- Product and engineering responsibilities
- Architecture and technical-debt decisions
- Targeted executive and scale-up advisory
How I engage
Diagnostic first. Then only the support the situation justifies.
- Focused diagnostic: evidence, interviews, system map, constraints, and decision-ready recommendations.
- Workshop: alignment, workflow opportunity mapping, problem slicing, or capability building.
- Targeted advisory: structured support around a specific transformation, architecture, or organisational question.
- Ongoing executive advisory: regular sparring and decision support for CTOs, CPTOs, founders, and VPs Engineering.
- Selected advisory-board work: where software delivery, architecture, operating model, or AI adoption is material to company growth.
Fit matters
Bring a real constraint, not a request for a framework.
The best starting point is a concrete trigger, leadership sponsorship, and enough access to evidence and decision-makers to understand the system. I do not provide generic mentoring, staff augmentation, or a predetermined methodology rollout.
