  • Implement:
    • Guardrails
    • Output validation
    • Human-in-the-loop workflows
    • Audit trails
    • Cost tracking
    • Rate limiting
  • Create reusable AI engineering frameworks including:
    • Prompt management
    • Evaluation harnesses
    • Context orchestration
    • Structured output validation
  • Ensure observability through:
    • Logging
    • Monitoring
    • Decision tracing
    • Agent action visibility
  • Collaborate with business and architecture teams to identify automation opportunities and integrate AI solutions into enterprise platforms.
