• Implement robust test automation frameworks (unit, integration, regression) for platform reliability.
• Ensure full traceability of changes to data and calculations through structured logging and audit layers.
• Enforce high standards for documentation, code clarity, and observability.
• Lead incident response and reliability initiatives where needed.
• Ingest and normalize data from spreadsheets, ERPs, and project delivery systems.
• Design data pipelines and services to support cross-phase variance analysis and cost forecasting.
• Collaborate with data teams to ensure models and metadata are aligned with end-user expectations and capital reporting needs.
