• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Data Science, Mathematics, Statistics, Operations Research, or a related quantitative field.

• 5+ years of experience in software engineering, platform engineering, or related roles.

• Proven experience building AI/ML or analytics platforms.

• Strong experience with at least one strongly typed programming language (e.g., C/C++, Java, Go, Rust).

• Experience working with distributed systems and large-scale data processing frameworks (e.g., Ray, Dask, Spark).

• Experience supporting ML or analytics workloads in production environments.
