• Partner with Data Engineering and Data Insights on data modeling, classification, and metadata management (e.g., Databricks, dbt).

• Contribute to developer accelerator tooling (e.g. standardized tool calling, MCP server configuration)

• Ensure solutions are observable, reliable, secure, and cost-efficient, with clear monitoring and operational ownership.

• Contribute to and uphold responsible AI standards, including privacy, security, and compliance requirements.

• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to translate ambiguous problems into clear technical designs and shipped solutions.

• Improve adoption and usability through documentation, internal tooling, and feedback-driven iteration.

• Act as a technical mentor and thought partner within the Enterprise AI team, helping raise the bar for engineering quality and delivery.

• Implement and document systems that are auditable and aligned with the organizational risk profile.

• Strong proficiency in Ruby, Python, and experience building services, pipelines, or applications in a cloud environment.

• Working knowledge of modern data platforms and tooling (e.g., SQL, Databricks, dbt).

• Experience working with AI/ML or LLM-powered systems (e.g., prompt design, orchestration, retrieval, or model integration).

• Solid understanding of system design, reliability, observability, and operational best practices.

• Ability to work effectively with non-technical stakeholders and translate business needs into technical solutions.

• Experience operating in environments with security, privacy, or compliance constraints.
