The AI SDLC Transformation Manager guides enterprise clients on redesigning software delivery to be AI-native. You've spent real time in software delivery, not just studying it. You know what broken looks like at the process level, and you know what good looks like when AI is woven in deliberately rather than bolted on. 

  • Hands-on experience with 2+ leading AI coding assistants (GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Amazon Q Developer, Cody) in enterprise environments 

  • Experience designing lightweight LLM evals for AI-generated SDLC artifacts( requirements docs, user stories, design reviews) 

  • Working knowledge of Model Context Protocol (MCP) and emerging tool orchestration standards 

  • Fluency in at least one major delivery methodology (Agile, SAFe, continuous delivery) with a clear point of view on where AI creates the most leverage 

  • Track record of presenting AI transformation strategies to VP- or C-level stakeholders and getting buy-in
