Lead hands-on workshops, labs, and office hours to upskill delivery teams and stakeholders on GenAI fundamentals (prompting, evaluation, safety considerations)
Build playbooks, patterns, and reference examples tailored to the client’s workflows and technology stack
Guide the design of GenAI solutions using a mix of Databricks, Google Gemini, AWS Bedrock, and other ecosystem tools—without requiring deep specialization in any single platform
Support development of prototypes such as RAG workflows, lightweight agents, orchestration patterns, and reference integrations to demonstrate feasibility and best practices
Advise on the broader GenAI vendor ecosystem (model providers, vector DBs, eval frameworks, agent platforms)
Compare tools across criteria like performance, cost, security, and implementation complexity; support proof‑of‑concept evaluations
Partner with data engineering, platform, and product teams to integrate GenAI responsibly within existing services and workflows
Communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical audiences, ensuring alignment around recommendations and decisions
