• Build integrations with data warehouses, BI tools, and third-party MCP servers with clean, well-documented interfaces.

• Proven track record of hands-on project ownership from concept to production.
• Experience mentoring junior engineers.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience shipping LLM features in production (Azure OpenAI or similar, RAG, prompt design, evaluation).
