- Build serverless integrations (Lambda, API Gateway, Step Functions, Python/Node.js) connecting AI agents with customer data systems and cloud‑based data stores (DynamoDB, RDS, S3, OpenSearch, Kendra).
- Leverage agentic development environments (e.g., Kiro) to accelerate spec‑driven development, MCP configuration, and AI‑assisted code generation.
- Guide customers through AI agent testing, evaluation, and validation against success criteria prior to production deployment.
- Create reusable artifacts (reference architectures, implementation guides, prompt libraries, data readiness checklists) to scale best practices. Basic Qualifications
- Experience in design, implementation, or consulting in applications and infrastructures.
- Experience communicating across technical and non‑technical audiences, including executive‑level stakeholders or clients.
