• Demonstrated daily use of AI across working practice, and platforms or products that have shipped or shaped where AI and agent frameworks were core rather than decorative; ability to guide shared versus product-specific capability decisions and develop build, buy, partner, or harvest recommendations
• Ability to operate with limited oversight, advise senior product and technology leaders, resolve complex cross-platform trade-offs, and coach professionals in leading technical product-management practices; preferred experience with developer or internal platforms (i.e. Agent orchestration, connector and integration architecture, or governed AI tooling) with audit trails and human-in-the-loop controls with application, data, or legacy modernization tooling
