  • Experience with stateless AI architectures and governed action layers.
  • Familiarity with Graph DBs, Snowflake, Appian, DealCloud, or Backstop CRM.
  • Experience with hybrid orchestration across AI, workflow, and transactional systems.
  • Exposure to enterprise observability, auditability, and AI governance.

What Success Looks Like

  • High-quality retrieval, integration, and workflow patterns supporting production use cases.
  • Engineering teams aligned and unblocked.
  • A platform built as a long-term enterprise AI foundation.
