He is currently executing an AI-native delivery model across Forge – applying agentic AI within governed software development pipelines and scaling AI tooling to 100+ engineers and product professionals. His focus is on the practical reality of AI in the SDLC: context quality, governance, and how engineering teams need to reorganise when velocity is no longer capped by headcount. He’ll also be the first to tell you that none of it works without getting the people side right first.

Joe Wolski is Chief Technology Officer at Godel Technologies, with over a decade of senior leadership across Technical Director, CTO and Chief Strategy Officer roles in some of Europe’s most demanding technology environments.

At Godel, Joe leads AI strategy with a straightforward belief: most organisations are asking the wrong questions about AI, and the ones moving fastest are those who’ve stopped debating the technology and started rethinking how they work. His focus is on helping clients build real AI capability into their products and engineering processes not bolting it on as an afterthought.

He writes and speaks regularly on AI strategy, delivery transformation and the uncomfortable questions most organisations are still avoiding.
