You will have the opportunity to:

• Shape the organization's enterprise AI strategy and engineering future state.
• Build and scale Agentic AI capabilities from the ground up.
• Define next-generation AI-driven SDLC practices.
• Work on real-world AI transformation initiatives rather than isolated proofs of concept.
• Partner with senior architects, engineering leaders, business executives, and technology vendors.
