AI Adoption

Driving Agentic Software Development

Trained at the Diffusion.io agentic development boot camp, I'm driving adoption across teams at ABC—coaching PMs and engineers on spec-driven agentic delivery.

  1. Spec First

    Lock intent, constraints, and acceptance criteria before an agent writes code.

  2. Bounded Slices

    Delegate isolated tasks with clear ownership rather than giant one-shot prompts.

  3. Verify

    Pair agent speed with adversarial critique, tests, and deterministic checks.

  4. Enable Teams

    Teach ABC teams repeatable frameworks so agentic habits stick in real sprints.
