• AI-Augmented Development: Use Cursor, Copilot, and LLM APIs as first-class engineering tools — not as an afterthought. Generate, validate, and iterate on code at machine speed. • Claude Agent Team Orchestration: Design and operate teams of Claude agents to parallelize engineering work — breaking large tasks into agent-executable subtasks, managing context handoffs between agents, and coordinating outputs into coherent, production-ready deliverables. This is a core competency, not a bonus. • Full-Stack Feature Ownership: Drive end-to-end delivery across Node.js backends and Next.js frontends, from schema design to production deployment. • LLM Product Integration: Build and iterate on AI-powered product features — prompt pipelines, RAG architectures, structured output parsing, and agentic workflows embedded into clinical and consumer interfaces. • Production Quality: Maintain high standards for API contracts, database schema migrations, CI/CD pipelines, and observability. AI-generated code is your code — you own its correctness. • Compliance & Security: Ensure all systems meet HIPAA/SOC2 standards, focusing on data encryption, audit logs, and PII protection.
