Technical Architecture & Delivery
Lead architecture decisions across the portfolio — schema design, API contracts, integration patterns, workflow orchestration, and when to integrate via direct API versus MCP (Model Context Protocol), weighing latency, control, security, auditability, and reusability tradeoffs
Hold delivery accountability — scope, timeline, quality — across all active workstreams, in partnership with the Director who owns product requirements and prioritization
Design and own the Postgres data schema underpinning the product (multi-table: pipeline data, access control, cost attribution, audit) — correctness and extensibility here is foundational, not incidental
Build and own the Claude/API integration layer: system prompt design and testing, multimodal document ingestion for XLSX, DOCX, PPTX, and PDF via reliable extraction/conversion pipelines, structured output parsing, schema validation, and fallback handling
Design practical automation workflows — background jobs, queues, retries, idempotency, human review points, run state,



and replayable audit history for multi-step AI-assisted processes
Build and own third-party DSP API integrations (e.g. DV360, TTD) — OAuth flows, structured data file formats, read/write scoping by phase
Design and own secrets and credential management — API keys, OAuth credentials, Azure Key Vault or equivalent secrets manager; nothing in code or workplace variables in source control
Design and own multi-tenant access control — role-based permissions, client-scoped data visibility, self-service onboarding
Design cost and usage attribution patterns — external API calls tagged and logged at the client and run level, feeding finance and program-level reporting as the portfolio scales
Review technical output against product requirements — flag when implementation doesn't match the requirement or the architecture is wrong for the problem
