- Design end-to-end integration across REST APIs, the MCP server, and the UI system of record.
- Collaborate with GCP Cloud Engineering on secure egress proxies, VPC Service Controls, GKE, Pub/Sub, IAM, and related cloud-native architecture.
- Design validation controls to prevent corrupt or unapproved AI-generated data from being written back to the UI system.
- Anticipate and mitigate API instability, dependency, and database-change risks; develop technical workarounds.
- Develop and execute load-testing strategies for approximately 1,500 concurrent users and document-heavy workloads.

- 12 months designing, implementing, or validating MCP servers, clients, tools, or integrations.
- 24 months with GCP cloud-native architectures and services, including one or more of GKE, Pub/Sub, IAM, VPC Service Controls, or secure egress patterns.
