• Experience with MCP architecture and integration: designing MCP server topology, capability schemas, tool gating/permissions, auditing and tracability
• Familiarity with patterns for agentic/LLM systems such as tool-calling, orchestration, evaluation loops and finetuning pathways
• Expertise in API and integration architecture (REST, GraphQL, events), data contracts, versioning, and resilience
