Develop and iterate on prompt engineering strategies to ensure consistent, accurate, and useful outputs from large language models (LLMs)
Prototype and test AI workflows using tools such as LLM APIs, automation platforms (e.g., Zapier, Make, Power Automate), and custom scripts
Build self-contained AI solutions (e.g., chatbots, internal assistants, workflow automations) that deliver immediate value without heavy system dependencies
Integrate AI tools with internal and third-party systems using APIs to enable scalable and connected workflows
Create dashboards, interfaces, or simple applications that allow non-technical users to easily interact with AI-driven solutions
Monitor, evaluate, and improve AI tool performance, including output accuracy, reliability, and user adoption
Implement guardrails and validation processes to mitigate hallucinations, ensure data integrity, and support responsible AI usage
Document workflows, tools, and processes to support scalability, maintainability, and team adoption
Stay current on emerging AI tools, platforms, and best practices; proactively recommend new technologies or approaches to the business
Support the evolution from standalone AI tools toward more integrated systems, contributing to long-term AI architecture and strategy
Collaborate cross-functionally with IT, data, and business teams to align AI initiatives with broader technology and operational goals
