• Build capability-grant enforcement for individual customers, workflows, operations, and service-to-service requests
• Own GitOps-based deployment pipelines for versioned workflow definitions across isolated customer environments
• Develop onboarding automation for identity provisioning, compliance configuration, and customer-specific key-management setup
• Build secure connector services for third-party APIs, including scoped access, managed credentials, request validation, and pre-execution audit logging
• Improve platform observability, performance, failure recovery, operational readiness, and production incident response
