Cloud & Data Engineering Familiarity: Comfort working in cloud environments (AWS/GCP/Azure) and with big data tools like Spark, Databricks, Hive, or Dask.
NLP & GenAI (a plus): Experience in NLP, transformer models (BERT, GPT), embeddings, fine-tuning LLMs, or vector database integrations is a big bonus.
Collaboration & Communication: Ability to communicate technical concepts to cross-functional audiences and contribute to planning, decision-making, and mentorship.
Preferred Experience:
