  • At least 5 years of experience in software engineering with a strong foundation in AI/ML technologies.
  • At least 3 years of experience managing a team, preferably in a software development environment.
  • Proven experience deploying LLMs (e.g., OpenAI, Claude, Mistral, Gemini, LLaMA) in production environments.
  • Deep understanding of modern AI/ML frameworks, MLOps principles, and generative AI patterns.
  • Experience with cloud-based AI platforms (e.g., Vertex AI, SageMaker, Azure OpenAI, or Snowflake Cortex).
  • Strong background in software architecture and agile development methodologies.
  • Exceptional communication skills with the ability to explain complex AI concepts to business leaders.
  • Demonstrated success leading innovation initiatives in high-growth or enterprise environments.
  • Experience in integrating AI into enterprise platforms such as ERP, CRM, or custom business systems.
