What changed recently
The newest month sharpens the AI picture: leadership for AI Infrastructure, an AI-focused applied science internship, and work on the Context Platform and MCP/API foundations point toward making AI features more capable and dependable. Enterprise expansion remains prominent, while recent roles also add emphasis on compliance, production engineering, and support operations. These are additions to the broader product and enterprise themes, not a clear departure from them.
