Operations & AI advisory · Bucharest

Operations first. AI that sticks.

Operating models, delivery and AI adoption for leadership teams who need all three to work. Built on years of running large, complex productions in games, now applied to your company.

The problem

Most companies don’t have an AI problem.

They have an operations problem: unclear ownership, invisible capacity, plans nobody trusts.

Fix that, and AI has something to scale.

What transfers

Hard-won in games. Here’s what transfers.

Fixed launch dates, big budgets, large teams spread across companies and countries. Games are a hard place to run production, and the lessons travel well beyond the industry.

In games

Scaled a studio from 3–4 to 12 simultaneous projects.

In your company

Run work as a portfolio: one view of capacity, clear priorities, and the discipline to cut what isn’t working, AI projects included.

In games

Contributed to one part of the outsourcing pipeline on a AAA production: ~1,000 people, an estimated $200M budget, work moving between companies.

In your company

Vendors, partners or AI agents: work that crosses boundaries needs clear briefs, quality gates and clean hand-offs.

In games

Mapped capabilities across 20 business units and 3,000 people.

In your company

See who does what before you redesign anything. You can’t improve, staff or automate work you can’t see.

In games

A decade at a leading mobile game developer, ending as Senior Producer on a ~$20M flagship title.

In your company

Hold transformation programmes to launch-date discipline: a fixed budget, visible milestones, and no endless pilots.

In games

Driving a PSA roll-out across a global services group.

In your company

Systems change is operations change. A roll-out lands when process, data and people move together.

The work

Operations and AI are one job.

Consultants fix process. Vendors sell AI. I work on both, because AI only pays off inside an operation that already works.

01

Operating model

How work is planned, staffed and delivered: clear ownership, real capacity data, and a rhythm the organisation can keep.

02

Economics

Where the margin is and where it leaks. Business cases for operational change and AI that leadership can defend in front of a board.

03

AI adoption

Guardrails, governance and change management, so AI lands inside the operation instead of next to it.

Selected work
