Software Engineering with AI at the Core

 Phase 1                   

Learn and Analyze (30-60 Days)

Objective: Establish a baseline, align with stakeholders, and set the stage for AI and PMF gains.
Duration: 30-60 days, depending on client complexity.

Parallel Workstreams:

Deliverable by Day 60: A unified "Kickoff Deck" combining both reports, presented to leadership with initial AI tooling and PMF recommendations.

 Phase 2                            

Implementation (6-12 Months)

Objective: Deploy AI tools, refine processes, and accelerate Product Market Fit with iterative wins.

Duration: 6-12 months, with weekly and monthly progress reviews.

Activity Sequence:

Reporting: Dashboards to management with KPIs, qualitative wins and next steps. 

 Outcomes   

Continous KPIs


 Phase 1                                                                                                   

Objective: Establish a baseline, align with stakeholders, and set the stage for AI and PMF gains.

Step 1: Assess current engineering processes, including cycle time, turnover, and tech stack, to establish a baseline (e.g., cycle time = 10 days, turnover = 20%).

Step 2: Evaluate client needs, such as PMF status, revenue goals, and retention challenges, by interviewing client success, sales, and marketing teams.


Step 3: Identify AI opportunities, such as replacing manual QA with AI agents or using Grok for code reviews, aligning with your "AI first before human hire" approach.


Step 4: Define metrics, core values, and OKRs, ensuring a single source of truth for tracking progress.

Outcome: This phase establishes baselines for all KPIs (e.g., Cycle Time, Turnover Rate), enabling measurable progress in Phase 2.

 Phase 2                                                                                                  

Objective: Transform your engineering team into an AI-powered, PMF-focused powerhouse, delivering measurable wins—faster cycles, stable talent, and soaring revenue.

4. PMF Acceleration via Idea Evaluator (Months 4-9)

5. Cultural Shift: Owner’s Mindset (Months 6-12)

6. Continuous Delivery & Revenue Focus (Months 6-12)
