• Integrate and leverage AI‑assisted development tools (e.g., code generation, code review assistants) to enhance productivity and developer experience
• Identify risks, dependencies, and bottlenecks, and proactively drive mitigation strategies
• Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives, including process optimization and innovation
• Support hiring, onboarding, and building strong engineering teams for new and existing projects
