What we're looking for
- Strong Python development skills
- Experience working with LLMs or generative AI systems in production
- Experience building APIs, services, or infrastructure around ML models
- Solid understanding of machine learning fundamentals
- Experience integrating AI into real products, not just experiments

- Experience with multimodal or diffusion models is a plus
- Ability to take end-to-end ownership of solutions
- Strong problem-solving skills and ability to operate in a fast-paced environment
- Ability to communicate effectively with both **engineers and product teams
