- Establish prompting patterns, validation approaches, and responsible-use boundaries.
- MCP Server Setup & Integration
- Set up and configure MCP servers for Claude Code.
- Enable secure, context-aware access to code, APIs, and documentation.
- Guide teams on when and how MCP should be used.
- Playbooks & Enablement
- Create lightweight playbooks covering setup, best practices, do's/don'ts, and common workflows.
- Conduct working sessions to upskill teams and accelerate self-sufficiency.
Required Skills & Competencies
- Core Skills
- Senior software engineer with strong hands-on coding experience.
- Practical experience using AI coding tools (Cursor, Claude Code, Copilot, or similar).
- Experience with MCP servers or equivalent context-injection mechanisms.
