Experience designing and building production agentic or conversational AI systems at scale.</li><li>
Experience with LLM evaluation and optimization - designing metrics and systematically improving model-based systems.</li><li>
Relevant work or academic experience (MSc + 6 years, or PhD + 4 years), applying Machine Learning to business problems.</li><li>
Masters degree, PhD or equivalent experience in a quantitative field (e.g., Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Mathematics, Physics, etc.).</li><li>
Experience designing and executing end-to-end R&amp;D plans. Preferably evidenced by peer-reviewed publications, patents, or open-source contributions.</li><li>
Strong working knowledge of Python and ML/AI frameworks. Experience with LLM APIs and retrieval systems.</li><li>
