- Experience owning services through design, development, testing, deployment, monitoring, and support.
- Strong communication and collaboration skills for client-facing consulting environments.

- Experience with API gateways, orchestration systems, connector frameworks, event-driven systems, or platform engineering.
- Experience with AI, LLM, RAG, agentic workflows, tool/function calling, MCP, A2A, or AI development lifecycle practices.
- Experience with event-sourced metering, quotas, entitlements, or billing-related platform services.
