Define and drive the platform roadmap for agent-based capabilities, focusing on measurable outcomes, reliability, and usability

Lead end-to-end delivery of core agent platform components, including software development kits, reference implementations, and integration patterns

Partner with product, engineering, risk, and control stakeholders to align requirements, prioritize trade-offs, and unblock execution

Establish quality, performance, and operational standards for agent workloads, including monitoring, testing, and incident readiness

Translate experimentation into production by driving clear architecture decisions, scalable designs, and repeatable deployment practices

Guide responsible development practices by embedding governance, privacy, and model risk considerations into platform design

Communicate technical strategy and progress to senior stakeholders with clarity, data, and pragmatic recommendations

Drives team adoption of enterprise-authorized AI-assisted engineering practices within the work environment to improve code quality, delivery speed, and operational outcomes (e.g., AI-assisted code review/refactoring, test strategy acceleration, incident/root-cause analysis support), while establishing consistent validation standards (secure coding, peer review, automated testing) and promoting reuse of effective patterns across the team.

Applies knowledge of tools within the Software Development Life Cycle toolchain, including enterprise-authorized AI-assisted development and automation capabilities, to improve the value realized by automation.

Required qualifications, capabilities, and skills
