Strong Forward Deployed AI Engineer experience.
Demonstrated strength in API design, abstraction, contract-driven development, and defining clean boundaries between system components.

Practical understanding of how LLM-powered agents operate, including model interaction, tool selection and execution, the tool loop, context, state, and memory.
Ability to reason about nondeterministic behavior and design solutions that can be evaluated, observed, and improved rather than merely confirming that an agent produces a response.

Understanding of production concerns such as retries, timeouts, error handling, back pressure, and service reliability.
