Joy Dixon | AI Strategy & Transformation Coach AI is reshaping how software teams build, ship, and scale — and most engineering leaders are navigating that shift without a map. I help CTOs and engineering leaders cut through the noise, develop a clear AI adoption strategy, and build the organizational capability to make it stick. With 25+ years of software engineering experience and 7+ years leading engineering teams at companies like Salesforce and Hazel Health, I bring a rare combination of deep technical fluency and executive-level leadership perspective. I've led Agile Transformations, rebuilt SDLC processes from the ground up, and most recently completed an AI Engineering Bootcamp — with hands-on experience in AI-assisted development, LLM integration, RAG pipelines, and adopting AI tooling across the software development lifecycle. I don't just understand AI from the outside. I've worked inside engineering organizations and know exactly where adoption stalls, where resistance lives, and what it takes to move a team from skepticism to measurable results. What my clients can expect: strategic clarity on where and how AI adds real leverage for their teams, a practical roadmap tailored to their stack and culture, and a thought partner who has sat in their seat and knows what it actually takes to lead through transformation.
