    • Experience with AWS, Azure, or GCP environments
    • Familiarity with CI/CD, containers, observability, and AI governance concepts
    • Strong communication skills with the ability to engage executive stakeholders
    • Bachelor’s degree required

    • Consulting or client-facing engineering experience preferred
    • Exposure to AI governance, AgentOps, telemetry, and compliance frameworks
    • Experience within enterprise AI consulting or hyperscaler ecosystems is highly valued
    • Background supporting industries such as financial services, retail, manufacturing, hospitality, or healthcare is a plus
