• Consulting or client-facing delivery experience with a proven ability to integrate into client organizations and establish credibility with technical and executive stakeholders.
• Full-stack engineering capability across frontend, backend, infrastructure, and data layers. Proficiency in multiple modern languages (e.g., Python, TypeScript/Node.js, C#/.NET, Java, or Go) with the ability to move between them as engagements require.
• Multi-hyperscaler depth across AWS and Azure, including their respective AI/ML service ecosystems (Bedrock, SageMaker, Azure OpenAI, Azure ML). GCP experience is a plus.
• Strong fundamentals in distributed systems, event-driven architecture, API design, and DevOps/platform engineering.
