- At least 5+ years of software engineering experience (Python, Ruby or Java).
- Demonstrated experience designing and developing infrastructure and platform services for machine learning lifecycle, such as feature stores, model development, deployment, and observability tools and solutions.
- Experience with at least one of the major cloud platforms (AWS preferred but not required).
- Curiosity and experimentation with emerging AI frameworks, applying and sharing best practices to evaluate and scale AI use safely across teams
- Comfort with AI-assisted development tools and a habit of staying current with emerging approaches to building software.
