Responsibilities

Provides authoritative technical guidance and architectural direction to business stakeholders, technical teams, contractors, and vendors — with a focus on workflow automation, AI/ML platforms, and cloud-native solutions on AWS, Azure and GCP.
Designs, engineers, and implements end-to-end workflow automation solutions and AI/ML pipelines, from architecture through production deployment.
Develops secure, high-quality production code; reviews, debugs, and optimizes code written by others — leveraging GitHub Copilot and AI-assisted development practices to accelerate delivery.
Drives architectural decisions that influence product design, application functionality, and technical operations — including infrastructure-as-code standards using Terraform across AWS environments.
Serves as a function-wide subject matter expert in AWS cloud architecture, MLOps, workflow orchestration, and intelligent automation.
Defines and enforces best practices for CI/CD pipelines, IaC (Terraform), model lifecycle management, and automated testing within the SDLC.
Actively contributes to the engineering community as an advocate of firmwide frameworks, tools, and practices — championing AWS Well-Architected principles, Terraform module reuse, and responsible AI/ML governance.
Influences peers and project decision-makers to evaluate and adopt leading-edge technologies including LLMs, agentic AI frameworks, and cloud-native automation services (e.g., AWS Step Functions, EventBridge, SageMaker, Bedrock).
Sets and scales operating practices for enterprise-authorized AI-assisted engineering and SDLC/TLM automation across multiple teams to improve delivery speed, quality, and operational outcomes; establishes measurable expectations (e.g., throughput, defect reduction, reliability) and ensures consistent validation, security, resiliency, and reuse of proven patterns.
Applies knowledge of tools within the Software Development Life Cycle toolchain, including enterprise-authorized AI-assisted development and automation capabilities, to drive efficiency and support capacity unlock initiatives across teams, prioritizing reuse of existing firm technology assets.
