Responsibilities

Embed with customers to map out workflows, de‑risk constraints, and define crisp success metrics for custom builds
Design → prototype → productionize custom workflows: customize knowledge sources and retrieval pipelines, tool use/agents, prompts, and guardrails; then harden them for reliability, observability, and scale
Integrate workflows with clients systems (DMS, KM, ticketing, identity/SSO) and data sources; standing up secure connectors to the rest of the Harvey platform
Build and maintain evals & harnesses that capture real‑world quality on a client-by-client basis, wiring those signals into iteration loops and model choices
Operationalize adoption: run training, write crisp runbooks, and hand-off durable playbooks to customer champions—and to Harvey product/eng—so wins scale beyond one account
Surface field patterns (recurring prompts, tools, workflows, failure modes) that inform platform capabilities and future product bets
