  • Experience mentoring others, driving teams to achieve results, leading multiple and/or large complex technical projects, and providing troubleshooting support.
  • Multi database and/or multi language.
  • Experience owning the end-to-end technical mission-translating an ambiguous business problem into a working production solution, from architecture and rapid prototyping through integration, testing, deployment, and stabilization.
  • Hands-on technical leader-designing and building across AI, applications, APIs, data, cloud, and legacy platforms while guiding other FDEs and federated engineering partners.
  • Experience engineering trust and production readiness from day one-embedding security, privacy, compliance, evaluations, observability, human oversight, and reliability into the solution rather than treating them as late-stage approvals.
  • Experience turning field delivery into reusable enterprise capability-converting mission learnings into reusable components, integration patterns, evaluation packs, development standards, and platform backlog enhancements that make subsequent missions faster and less expensive.
