  • Plan and execute cloud-to-on-prem and hybrid migration patterns for AI workloads onto Dell infrastructure, optimizing performance, reliability, and security
  • Take shared responsibility for production readiness and early production stability, including monitoring, performance optimization, and issue triage
  • Work closely with AI Data Specialists to define and consume AI-ready data pipelines that support performance and reliability
  • Collaborate with AI Strategists and Enterprise Architects to align technical scope with business outcomes and target-state architectures
  • Provide documentation, runbooks, and knowledge transfer to customer teams, and contribute to Dell AI Factory reference architectures and playbooks
  • Mentor other technical team members on AI architecture patterns, Dell AI infrastructure capabilities, and responsible AI practices
