Ensure solutions are production-ready, including testing, documentation, and handover
Act as a reliable execution partner, proactively communicating progress, trade-offs, risks, and changes in expectations

Prior consulting, advisory, or client-facing delivery experience
Demonstrated adoption of AI-assisted engineering tools and practices as part of day-to-day software delivery
Strong Python experience in enterprise settings
