- Strong practical experience with Python and SQL data tooling required
- Familiarity with ML and LLM-based solutions, including applying ML techniques in production contexts and building validation, evaluation, or quality measurement workflows for ML/LLM-based systems
- Experience translating ambiguous customer or stakeholder requirements into technical specifications, workflows, and delivered solutions
- Experience integrating systems via APIs and building custom tooling or workflows for non-standard technical requirements
