Responsibilities
- Own the design, delivery, and production quality of platform capabilities end to end --- from initial architecture through deployment and observability

Platform Focus Areas
- A capability discovery and provisioning system that lets applications find and connect to governed data at deploy time --- without hardcoded configuration
- Data infrastructure that runs identically in cloud, on-premise, and fully airgapped environments
- AI-assisted search across governed mission data --- the same RAG pattern proven in production to support of the US Navy Submarine programs, productized and made repeatable
- Access control enforcement that is enforced by the platform, not by convention --- applications get what they're authorized for and nothing else
