Building AI-Ready Organizations: A Framework for Enterprise Transformation
How to prepare your engineering organization for the AI revolution—from infrastructure to culture.
My journey began in the trenches—debugging complex distributed systems, architecting scalable solutions, and shipping products that millions relied on daily. That hands-on foundation shaped how I approach leadership today.
Over 17 years, I've evolved from individual contributor to leading organizations of 200+ engineers, managing portfolios exceeding $50M, and driving transformations that positioned companies as industry leaders. But I never lost touch with the code.
I believe the best technology leaders stay curious, stay technical, and never stop learning.
