  • Proven skill training classical models (gradient boosting, tree ensembles, linear models) and building repeatable pipelines.
  • Prompt-engineering expertise: designing, testing, and refining system/user prompts, few-shot patterns, tool calls, and guardrails.
  • Practical experience fine-tuning LLMs, implementing RAG pipelines, vector search, and conducting large-scale evaluations.
  • Solid grasp of pydantic for typed data models and validation in Python services.
  • Clean, well-tested code with CI/CD, containers, observability, and performance tuning.
  • Clear written and verbal communication; effective cross-team collaboration.
  • Track record of independently delivering projects in fast-moving environments.
