Pedro Pizarro, AI Adoption & Implementation Lead

AI Adoption & Implementation Lead · Remote EU

Pedro Pizarro.

I turn AI pilots into solutions teams actually use.

14 years managing software delivery across banking, aerospace, and energy. Today I focus on AI adoption: framing agentic workflows, setting human in the loop controls, and moving teams past prototypes into production.

AI Adoption & Implementation Lead
  • End-to-end delivery across 5+ concurrent workstreams: backend, frontend, mobile iOS/Android, QA, design
  • Owned release pipelines with quality gates: UAT, NRT, BDD. No release without validated acceptance criteria.
  • Coordinated API integration delivery (REST, Swagger/OpenAPI) across internal and external services
  • Mobile banking app delivery: backend API dependencies, QA cycles, staged rollouts
  • AI delivery (2025): Designed and deployed a two-agent pipeline into live sprint workflows. The first agent, a Gemini Gem, reads ceremony transcripts from Google Drive and grounds every answer on verified sources before anything moves forward. The second agent takes that context and writes the full backlog: epics, user stories, acceptance criteria, QA criteria, ready before the team sits down. Results: +40% sprint capacity per cycle, cycle time from 6 days to 3, 85% commitment rate across 4 service lines.
  • AI delivery (2026): Designed a 4-phase AI agent adoption program for a large-scale software development cycle. The starting problem was documentation: most microservices had no updated technical docs, so dependency conflicts surfaced during development instead of before it, and AI agents working without context produced unreliable output. Phase 0 embeds Copilot instruction files in Git repositories. Phase 1 runs documentation agents that draft technical docs per microservice, validated by engineers before anything goes live. Phase 2 introduces a pre-development agent that reads those docs and flags conflicts before the first commit. Phase 3 adds a post-PR agent that proposes documentation updates after each merge. Trained 40+ professionals and built the LLM governance framework that governs every step.
2025 – 2026 Independent AI Venture AI Adoption for SMEs
MVP / Pilot Validation
Adaptive RAG
Founder & Builder
  • Founded an independent AI product venture to validate practical AI adoption barriers for SMEs
  • Ran structured discovery with 30+ SME owners across Italy: fear of implementation, no shared standards, no measurement of outcomes, unclear operational ownership
  • Designed the product architecture from zero: adaptive RAG, multi-thread retrieval, conceptual graphs, NoSQL storage and interaction-memory patterns to reduce hallucination risk over time
  • Built workflows with n8n and the Claude API; worked directly on API design, endpoint testing, prompt/system configuration and LLM governance choices
  • Shipped an MVP/pilot and ran validation; developed competitive analysis, pricing model and a pre-seed business case
2021 – 2022 AizoOn Aerospace
DevOps · CI/CD
Agile Lead
  • Coordinated delivery across 4 teams (~30 members) on a compliance-audited aerospace SaaS product
  • Improved release frequency: bi-monthly → every 3 weeks via CI/CD optimization in Azure DevOps
  • Built early-warning monitoring and auditable decision logs aligned with aerospace compliance
2019 – 2021 CWS Digital Solutions Corporate Training
Distributed Teams
Italy / India
Scrum Master
  • Distributed teams across Italy and India: 5-6h daily overlap, structured async communication
  • Lead time cut from 3 weeks → 1.5 weeks (−50%) via custom Lean-Kanban system
  • Led product discovery for custom CRM: 30+ user interviews, MVP workshops, integration requirements
2018 – 2019 Iscot Italia S.p.A. Industrial Maintenance
Robotics · Manufacturing
Senior Project Manager
  • Delivered 5 projects/year with ~80% on-time, on-scope rate
  • Built milestone tracking and executive health reporting with early-intervention indicators
2011 – 2017 FCA (Solveit S.r.l.) Manufacturing · IT
Automotive
Project Manager
  • Directed 2-3 concurrent projects (€200K-€300K each)
  • Managed cross-functional teams up to 20 people with ~80% delivery success rate
Open Source Voicebot-PY Voice AI · Vapi
FastAPI · RAG
Tool Calling · SQLite
Services Voice Assistant
  • Built an Italian-language voice assistant for municipal services: Vapi for the voice/conversation layer, a custom FastAPI backend for knowledge, rules and appointment logic
  • Architecture principle: the voice layer speaks; the backend knows and decides. Retrieval, business rules, booking and persistence stay outside the conversational prompt
  • Implemented an explainable RAG pipeline with a JSONL corpus, multilingual embeddings, cosine similarity, a confidence threshold and fallback to official contacts instead of guessing
  • Used SQLite for appointment persistence, Pydantic for API contracts and pytest for 71 automated tests, including contract tests between the voice layer and backend

2024 Prompt Engineering

Inverting Prompting: An Application of Carl Jacobi's Principle of Inversion in AI

Applies Carl Jacobi's inversion principle to AI prompt engineering. Instead of prompting directly toward a goal, the opposite is prompted first, surfacing failure modes and hidden variables, then refined into a precise, effective prompt. Demonstrated in training and delivery contexts.

Synergizing Artificial and Emotional Intelligence

Explores how Emotional Intelligence (EI) and AI work together in fast-paced Agile environments. Covers conflict resolution, adaptive leadership, and team performance through case studies, arguing that EI is the distinctively human complement to AI's analytical power.

AI, Family, and Educational Change: Rethinking the Parenting Role

Examines how AI integration into family life is transforming the parental role. Proposes a "parental emotional mediation" framework, adapting Goleman's emotional intelligence theory to the digital age, with practical tools like the "candy test" and "emotional traffic light."
