• Develop shared components: Champion reusable components ex. SMS/email authentication for AI agents to drive consistency with AI agent use cases and developer efficiency.
• Ensure scalable API development: Guide the evolution of APIs to enable secure, performant integrations for internal and external developers; manage documentation and versioning.
