  • Review technical deliverables throughout design and development to identify quality gaps, redesign needs and cross-release impacts.
  • Work with technology partners to define metrics, validate performance goals and address application or data issues affecting solution integrity.

AI Workflow Innovation & Governance
  • Use approved AI-assisted development tools to accelerate coding, refactoring, testing and documentation within defined enterprise guardrails.
  • Validate AI-generated code through peer review, automated tests, linting, dependency checks and secure coding practices before delivery.
  • Document prompts, assumptions or generated artefacts when required so outputs remain traceable and supportable.
  • Escalate potential privacy, IP, security or data-handling concerns before using sensitive information in AI-assisted workflows.
  • Contribute examples, patterns and lessons learned that help the team improve safe use of AI-enabled engineering practices.

Shareholder
