  • Build AI agents and retrieval-augmented workflows with tools, memory, orchestration, context control, and guardrails.
  • Lead AI-based document parsing and intelligent data extraction initiatives.
  • Implement AI observability practices to monitor model behavior, detect anomalies, and assess performance and reliability.
  • Evaluate when deterministic solutions are safer, simpler, or more cost-effective than AI solutions.
  • Advise business stakeholders, delivery teams, engineering, testing, architecture, and citizen developers on effective AI adoption.
  • Mentor staff, deliver demonstrations, create reference documentation, and develop AI engineering best practices.
