What You'll Bring Required 5–8 years of overall software engineering experience, including full stack application development and production support. Advanced proficiency in Python and strong software engineering fundamentals (design, testing, debugging). Hands‑on experience delivering AI/ML or Generative AI solutions in production (LLM‑enabled apps, RAG, orchestration). Experience with RAG architectures and vector databases / vector search .
