• Experience with semantic model generation and diagram/presentation element creation.
• Experience working with modeling tool APIs, sessions/transactions, and diagram automation.
• Familiarity with Eclipse-based plugin environments.
• Experience with JavaFX, Swing, or desktop plugin UI development.
• Experience integrating AI/LLM capabilities into engineering workflows.
• Familiarity with prompt/schema design for structured LLM output.
• Experience with internal tooling or utility libraries similar to model/query/generation helper frameworks.
