Consulting

AI that actually ships

Most AI initiatives stall between proof-of-concept and production. The longer they stall, the more the organisation spends on parallel experiments that never converge. I help bridge that gap with the platform architecture, governance and delivery experience that comes from building these systems at enterprise scale. Not theory. Decisions and infrastructure that have already worked.

AI strategy and readiness

Move from AI ambition to a clear plan without spending months on a strategy deck nobody reads. Practical roadmaps with architecture decisions, governance requirements and quick wins that build momentum.

  • AI readiness assessment and maturity mapping
  • Use case identification and prioritisation
  • Technology selection and vendor evaluation
  • Governance and compliance frameworks

Platform architecture

Design the platform layer your AI initiatives need to succeed without creating technical debt that slows you down later. The shared services and developer experience that make the right path the easy path.

  • AI gateway and API design
  • RAG and agentic AI architectures
  • Cloud-native infrastructure (AWS, Azure, GCP)
  • Reference architectures and solution assurance

Hands-on delivery

Not just architecture diagrams. I write code, build infrastructure and ship production systems. End-to-end responsibility from strategy through to deployment without handing off to a team who weren't in the room for the decisions.

  • AI integration into existing workflows
  • Serverless data pipelines and automation
  • Infrastructure as code and CI/CD
  • Python, .NET, TypeScript, Rust

Speaking and workshops

I speak about the things I actually do. Practical talks and workshops that leave your team with decisions to make, not slides to file. Available for conferences, leadership offsites and team sessions.

  • Operationalising AI in the enterprise
  • AI governance and safety for coding agents
  • Building platform teams and developer experience
  • Practical AI workshops for non-technical teams

Who I work with

I work primarily with SMEs and enterprises who are serious about AI adoption but need experienced guidance to move beyond pilots and into production without the usual stall.

Common engagements include organisations that have tried AI but struggled to scale it, companies preparing for EU AI Act compliance and teams that need an experienced architect to design their AI platform layer.

I take on a small number of engagements at any time so I can give each one proper attention. I'm also available for short-term advisory, architecture reviews and speaking engagements.

Let's talk about your AI ambitions

Every engagement starts with a conversation. No sales pitch. Just an honest assessment of where you are and what it would take to move forward.
