- Demonstrated ability to produce public-facing technical content and represent a company externally.
- Ability to shape ambiguous requirements into precise specs.
- Strong presence and persuasion; comfortable being the technical authority.

- Translate requirements into scoped execution plans — volumes, timelines, methodology, pricing inputs — in partnership with delivery.
- Serve as the credible technical voice in the room: explain tradeoffs and defend methodology choices.
- Build reusable solutioning assets: scoping frameworks, spec templates, reference architectures for common audio data use cases.
- Stay at the tip of the spear on speech-AI developments (TTS, ASR, speech-to-speech).
- Produce go-to-market material: technical blog posts, white papers, benchmark reports, and reference content.
