  • Practical familiarity with AI solution patterns such as RAG, LLM application design, agentic workflows, orchestration, model integration, vector databases, evaluation, guardrails, and observability.
  • Strong understanding of modern engineering practices including CI/CD, automated testing, version control, containerization, monitoring, reliability, security, and scalable deployment.
  • Ability to lead technical teams, review designs and code, mentor engineers, and drive delivery quality across complex workstreams.
  • Strong client-facing communication skills and the ability to explain technical trade-offs to executives and non-technical stakeholders.
