Eval-driven development is your standard practiceOwn quality end to end — correctness, performance, security posture, and WCAG accessibility of the software your team ships, irrespective of which component or agent produced the initial implementationAdvance workstreams along the autonomy ladder on the basis of evidence — move work from supervised to autonomous execution when measured reliability supports it, and revert promptly when it does notStrengthen the development lifecycle itself — identify where patterns, prompts, or pipeline components degrade at volume and work with the lead architect to remediate themMaintain agent operations within the security boundary — branch-only execution, vaulted credentials, sandboxed actions, and in-VPC inferenceSkillsStrong engineering fundamentals.
