 * Use AI-assisted development tools (e.g., AI coding assistants and agentic development workflows) as a standard part of daily engineering work, and drive adoption of these practices across the team.
 * Evaluate and champion new AI-augmented engineering practices and tooling as Greenshades' AI-first development approach continues to evolve.
 * Partner with the Sustainability team to ensure smooth knowledge transfer of new Payroll features and to resolve production issues affecting payroll processing.
