• Proven ability to mentor Technical Leads and senior engineers while remaining hands-on enough to challenge solution choices and guide implementation quality
• Experience escalating and resolving delivery risk in a client-facing engagement

Preferred qualifications

• Familiarity with AI/RAG delivery quality standards specifically
