Pietro Piga

I lead the global Salesforce and AI platform of a multinational industrial group in the energy sector. A team of nine, and the roadmap of a platform the business runs on.

What I do with LLMs

I work on a CRM without opening it. From Claude, over MCP, I read the org metadata and the official documentation, query the data, and apply changes with the Salesforce CLI. The customer deck is a Lovable web app, so I can see which pages the reader stops on.

How I know it works

Two agents, two checks, neither of them a score after the fact.

The internal knowledge agent answers with its source attached: whoever reads an answer can open the document and check it.

A research run: every dental practice in Emilia-Romagna, in about an hour, for $0.34 against a $1 ceiling I set. The log is the proof:

Limits stated up front: these are public listings, not a register of licensed practitioners. Emails are published, not verified, and none were invented.

An evaluation, to me, is a design where every row can be checked by whoever has to act on it.

Three methods I use

All three in full on how I work.

What I am looking for

Applied AI architect work at a frontier lab or an AI-first company, on the customer-facing side of enterprise adoption: where AI creates value, how it connects to the systems already there, what makes it outlive the pilot. Stated up front: my hands-on work is prototype-led, not production software engineering.
