  • Professional experience in ML, Software Engineering, or a related role, including 3+ years delivering AI/ML solutions in production.
  • Strong Python development experience building and operating production services and APIs.
  • Experience developing full-stack agentic solutions using agent frameworks such as ADK, A2A, MCP, LangChain, LangGraph, or CrewAI, and familiarity with commercial and open-source foundation models.
  • Experience building and operating advanced RAG and Agentic RAG systems using modern techniques and methodologies.
  • Experience with agentic monitoring, observability, and model evaluation frameworks to assess quality, safety, and performance in production.
  • Hands-on experience with ML and AI frameworks such as PyTorch, Hugging Face, Pandas, NumPy, and related libraries.
  • Hands-on experience with at least one public cloud AI/GenAI platform, such as AWS SageMaker/Bedrock or Google Vertex AI, Vertex AI Search, and RAG Engine.
  • Experience designing and delivering production-grade APIs and microservices using modern software engineering practices.
  • Hands-on experience with DevOps and CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure as code such as Terraform, GitHub collaboration, and cloud deployments.
  • Experience with DevSecOps tools such as Nexus, SonarQube, Checkmarx, and mcp-scan.
  • Experience working in lean, agile environments such as SAFe or similar frameworks.
