• Prompt engineering & validation: develop prompt strategies, test for accuracy, and implement guardrails to reduce hallucinations.
• Prototype & deploy: move prototypes from LLM APIs and automation platforms (Zapier, Power Automate, custom scripts) into secure, monitored production services.
• API integrations: integrate models with internal systems and third-party services via microservices and secure APIs.
• MLOps & monitoring: implement CI/CD for models, observability for model drift, and performance dashboards for adoption metrics. Implement CI/CD for AI workflows, monitor response quality and prompt performance over time, and build dashboards that track adoption, usage patterns, and output accuracy.
• User interfaces: build simple UIs or dashboards for non technical users to interact with AI tools.
• Governance & security: enforce RBAC, data handling policies, and compliance controls for sensitive data.
• Development Lifecycle: use deployment best practices, including application lifecycle management and change control.
• Documentation & training: document workflows and facilitate training of end users; hand off to IT for long term support.
• Roadmap contribution: help evolve standalone tools into integrated AI architecture aligned with enterprise strategy.
