- Proven ability to build a basic application from idea to delivery with minimal supervision.
- Experience with Python for application development, cloud (AWS/Azure/GCP), database systems, and SQL.
- Familiarity with ML practices around integrating and calling LLMs (e.g., streaming/token usage, basic fine-tuning concepts, RAG patterns).
- Demonstrated ability to problem-solve in ambiguous environments and work efficiently with online and onsite resources.
- Practical experience with RESTful API integrations and front-end consumption.
- Agile mindset, able to incorporate feedback and adapt priorities quickly.
- Ability to visualize and communicate architectural concepts.
Desired Characteristics:
- Competent working within secured internal networks and complex cloud setups.
