Technical Leadership
Lead architecture design sessions, mentor engineering teams, and establish best practices for scalability, security, and maintainability.

Data Management
Oversee data models and flows between systems, ensuring accuracy, integrity, and compliance with business rules and security requirements.

Proof Of Concept (PoC)
Lead PoCs to validate product features or integration strategies, demonstrating architectural soundness and feasibility before full-scale development.
