Katie Roberts

Katie is a Technical Director and AI-Native Engineering Specialist with over twenty years' experience leading large-scale software delivery and organisational transformation.

Her work focuses on the strategic evolution of engineering practices, moving beyond AI experimentation to enable teams to adopt AI-native ways of working at scale. Katie specialises in the socio-technical challenges of integrating AI-assisted workflows into mature, brownfield environments, where navigating legacy architecture, delivery risk, and operational stability is paramount.

She partners with senior stakeholders to introduce these practices pragmatically, focusing on measurable improvements. Her approach prioritises engineering excellence and sustainable change that enhances, rather than disrupts, existing enterprise platforms.

A lifelong maker, Katie spends her time outside of work constructing new forms from clay and textiles, or playing guitar.
