- Ensure data privacy and compliance (HIPAA/PHI handling, access controls, auditability) and champion model governance and Responsible AI
- Translate business problems into technical roadmaps; communicate trade-offs and results to executives and non-technical partners
- Mentor engineers and set engineering standards (code reviews, documentation, reliability, observability)
