• Partner with cloud and data platform providers (e.g., AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, Snowflake) to optimize data federation, model performance, and scalability.
• Define and manage architecture patterns for data warehousing and federation, ensuring seamless data interoperability across multi-cloud and hybrid environments.
• Establish metrics for AI agent performance and continuously improve outcomes through feedback loops, data-driven insights, and reinforcement learning principles.
• Ensure compliance with data privacy regulations, AI governance standards, and ethical best practices in intelligent data management.
• Collaborate with sales and customer success teams to support product adoption, satisfaction, and revenue growth through AI-enabled automation and analytics.
• Act as a thought leader in AI systems and data federation strategy, contributing insights through industry publications, panels, and conferences.
