• Present strategic roadmaps and architectural visions to customer stakeholders, from engineers to executives.
• Support technical presales efforts, workshops, and proofs of concept, bringing in business context and value-first thinking.
• Create reusable reference architectures, best practices, and delivery models, and mentor others in applying them.
