* Maintain a forward‑looking view on emerging technologies, including AI, automation, and orchestration tools, evaluating their potential to meet evolving business needs.
About you
* Proven experience designing and delivering large‑scale technology solutions in commercial or enterprise environments.
* Strong foundation in data and analytics architecture, including data modeling, ETL pipelines, data governance, and machine learning concepts.
* Hands‑on development experience using Python, retrieval‑augmented generation (RAG), and orchestration frameworks.
* Hands on familiarity with Azure and Snowflake.
* Demonstrated ability to explore and adopt emerging technologies with a proactive, experimental mindset.
* Familiarity with modern frameworks and platforms such as Azure AI/AI Foundry, Snowflake Cortex, OpenAI, or Hugging Face.
