• UI & Experience Design: Build intuitive AI-driven applications using Databricks Apps (Streamlit/Dash) or modern web frameworks to enable business consumption.

• Data Engineering for AI: Build reliable data pipelines (batch & streaming) supporting training, inference, and feature generation using Delta Lake.

• Security & Governance: Implement enterprise-grade controls using Unity Catalog (row/column-level security, lineage, auditability) aligned with compliance standards.

• LLM Guardrails & Responsible AI: Implement guardrails (e.g., NeMo Guardrails) for prompt injection prevention, hallucination mitigation, and safe output handling.

• MLOps & AIOps: Establish CI/CD pipelines for AI models and agents, including versioning, monitoring, drift detection, observability, and incident response.

• Performance & Cost Optimization: Optimize model performance, GPU/compute usage, and inference cost efficiency across environments.

• Testing & Evaluation

• Collaboration & Stakeholder Engagement

• Documentation & Knowledge Transfer
