Familiarity with modern AI/ML concepts, including computer vision or large vision models, search, RAG systems, or applied ML services.
Proven ability to operate across ambiguity, balancing strategic direction with execution-level detail.
Strong communication and influence skills across engineering, data, product, and business partners.
