Build a team that wants to stay, grow, and deliver.
Most teams don’t fail because of talent.
They fail because of energy leaks.
- Burnout hides beneath “performance improvement plans.”
- Communication collapses under the weight of fear.
- Smart engineers check out — or walk out.
You don’t fix this with more Jira tickets or another motivational speech.
You need to redesign the way your team operates at a human level.
That’s where I come in.
What I Offer
Through Human Driven Development consulting, I work directly with you and your team to rebuild the foundation of your engineering culture.
You’ll learn how to:
- Spot and eliminate hidden energy drains
- Build trust without micromanaging
- Design systems that energize, not exhaust
- Keep your developers sharp, motivated, and loyal
This isn’t about adding more meetings.
It’s about rethinking how your team works, communicates, and connects.
Who This Is For
- CTOs and Heads of Engineering who know something deeper is off, but can’t quite name it.
- Startups scaling fast but feeling the culture slip through their fingers.
- Leaders ready to stop "managing" developers and start energizing them.
If you want to build a place where great engineers stay, grow, and deliver their best work — this is for you.
Why It Works
I've mentored 30+ developers 1:1.
I’ve seen this play out inside Amazon and with fast-paced startups.
I know what developers really need from their leaders—and what leaders need from their teams.
I don’t sell fluff. I go deep.
I’ll tell you what’s working, what’s not, and—if you’re in your own way—I’ll tell you that too.
Ready to rebuild your foundation?
You don’t need another dashboard.
You don’t need to burn $200K/year on a new senior hire.
You need a real partner who listens, goes deep, and helps your team win.

Hey, I’m Joey Pedicini.
I spent 12 years as a software engineer, including leading teams at Amazon Health One Medical.
But honestly? My favorite part of engineering was never the code.
It was building great teams.
It was watching burned-out developers come back to life when they finally had clarity, trust, and space to do their best work.
It was helping leaders stop managing chaos and start actually leading.
That's why I created Human Driven Development — to help CTOs and engineering leaders build calm, focused, high-performing teams without hiring more people or adding more process.
Because I’ve lived the other side — the late nights, the constant fires, the reactive culture.
And I know what’s waiting for you on the other side of that chaos:
→ A team that’s proud of what they’re building.
→ A culture that feels human again.
→ And a CTO with the space to think bigger.
Let’s get you there.
