- Implement multi-agent workflows with Semantic Kernel (handoff, sequential, concurrent) to route traffic among specialised LLM agents.
- Integrate LLM providers (OpenAI GPT-4.1/mini, Google Gemini 2.5 Flash) behind a provider-agnostic layer for A/B and cost-aware routing.
- Deliver Retrieval-Augmented Generation with vector stores such as Azure AI Search, pgvector, or Chroma.
- Expose tool-using agents via OpenAI Assistants (Code-Interpreter) for data-analysis / file-manipulation tasks.
- Evolve schemas with SQLModel / SQLAlchemy 2 & Alembic; tune Postgres for high concurrency async access.
- Maintain robust CI/CD (Bitbucket Jenkins) that lint, type-check, test, package (Docker), and deploy.
- Instrument services with structlog JSON logs, OpenTelemetry traces, and cost/latency metrics; hold p95 < 100 ms.
- Champion AI-assisted development (GitHub Copilot, Cursor) and share pragmatic problem-solving practices with the team.
