• Quality Control & Review: Review Associates’ outputs for accuracy, completeness, and business alignment. Provide constructive feedback.
• Solution Design & Debugging: Help translate requirements into agent workflows, prompts, and data pipelines. Support debugging and close technical gaps.
• Prompt Engineering & Flow Building: Collaborate on multi-turn conversation design, fallback logic, and prompt optimization.
• Backlog & Timeline Management: Maintain sprint hygiene, track progress, and ensure timely delivery of assigned use cases.
• Client Engagement: Act as the point of contact for use case-level discussions, requirement clarification, and testing feedback loops.
• Exploring New Tech: Research new AI tools, libraries, or frameworks (e.g., LangChain, LangGraph, vector DBs) and share adoption opportunities.
• Mentorship: Guide Associates and Interns in execution, accountability, and best practices.
• Hiring & Training: Participate in interviews, onboarding, and training programs for new team members.

• Strong understanding of BI reporting – ability to interpret trends, anomalies, and actionable insights.
• Familiarity with LLMs, prompt design, RAG architectures, and multi-agent orchestration.
