  • Expertise in integrating AI services with existing enterprise software ecosystems, including security, compliance, and data governance frameworks.
  • Proficiency in Python-based frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow, LangChain, LlamaIndex).
  • Hands-on experience with CI/CD for AI, model versioning, and monitoring tools (e.g., MLflow, Kubeflow, Weights & Biases).
  • Strong background in RESTful API development (FastAPI, Flask) and data pipeline architecture (Apache Airflow, Kafka, Spark).
  • Deep understanding of the underlying principles of neural networks and transformer architecture.
  • Ability to interpret and optimize model performance using formulas related to loss functions and optimization.
  • Strong proficiency in Python, SQL, and familiarity with C++ or Go for high-performance components.
  • Expertise in containerization and orchestration using Docker and Kubernetes.
