AI Strategy & Technical Leadership

AI strategy, adoption and technical delivery

I bring more than 20 years of experience across enterprise technology, SaaS, product delivery, consulting and commercial leadership.

I take responsibility for the direction and stay close to implementation: choosing priorities, aligning specialists and users, and leading the work needed to put useful systems into operation.

Working together

Strategy that survives contact with operations

AI strategy, technical direction and responsible adoption.

Customer-facing leadership across SaaS, enterprise transformation and regulated markets.

Available for permanent AI leadership roles and consulting, including longer-term engagements.

Native German and English, with professional working ability in Italian, Spanish and French.

Where I create value

The common thread is translation: between ambition and delivery, executives and engineers, customer needs and product reality.

AI strategy and operating capability

Turn broad AI ambition into priorities, governance, workflows, ownership and evidence that an organisation can actually operate.

Technical and product leadership

Guide architecture, platform choices, delivery priorities and technical teams while keeping commercial and operational outcomes visible.

Customer-facing solution leadership

Lead discovery, executive conversations, demonstrations and solution design for complex SaaS and technology decisions.

Enterprise transformation and adoption

Align stakeholders, governance, systems and teams so transformation becomes sustained operating change rather than a programme on paper.

Selected experience

A career across strategy, customers and delivery

These roles show the breadth behind the positioning, from hands-on AI work and regulated product leadership to global enterprise transformation and customer-facing solution design.

Photography
