• Collaborate with JMARK's AI Operations team, engineers, and client-facing teams to deliver effective solutions.
• Provide technical guidance and mentorship to less experienced team members.
• Identify opportunities to improve processes, automation, and overall solution quality.
• Maintain clear documentation and communicate project progress, challenges, and solutions.
