Blend is thrilled to announce the addition of AJ Bubb as the new Vice President of Sales, AI and Emerging Technology. AJ brings a wealth of experience from leading technology companies and consultancies, including roles at AWS and Accenture, making him a key player in Blend’s journey toward customer-centric innovation and transformation.
Since joining Blend in July 2024, AJ’s focus has been clear: to bridge the gap between customer needs and cutting-edge technology solutions. In his role, AJ leads the charge in driving holistic transformation strategies for clients.
“I'm excited to work with clients creatively and without the restrictions that come with being tied to specific technologies,” says AJ. “At Blend, our goal is to think about the customer first and develop solutions that truly meet their needs, not just apply the latest tech trend for the sake of it.”
As AI continues to evolve, businesses are eager to integrate emerging technologies like Generative AI. However, AJ notes that companies often face challenges with the foundational aspects needed to truly leverage these innovations. “The excitement around new tech is real, but often, businesses are not structurally ready to implement it,” he explains. “My role is to help them build those foundations and align technological advancements with their long-term goals.”
AJ’s passion for this field stems from a desire to help businesses focus on both short-term wins and long-term sustainable innovation. His ability to see the bigger picture is crucial in helping companies navigate the complexities of AI-driven transformation while ensuring they stay competitive and future-proof.
AJ believes that a strong sense of play and passion is essential to success, both personally and professionally. "Play is about exploration and experimentation, and passion is what drives us to dive deep and make meaningful impacts," he shares. These values align perfectly with Blend’s culture, which encourages creativity and a customer-first mindset, allowing the company to continue delivering cutting-edge solutions.
