• Experience with CI/CD and observability using Git-based automation (e.g., GitHub Actions, GitLab CI) and monitoring tools like Prometheus, Grafana, or OpenTelemetry.
• Exposure to data and feature pipelines with tools such as Airflow, Spark, or Kafka, including designing or contributing to workflows and feature stores.
• Familiarity with cloud-native development on AWS, Azure, or GCP, including containerized deployment with Docker/Kubernetes and basic infrastructure-as-code.
• Understanding of API and system architecture, including event-driven design and API exposure (REST/gRPC), with the ability to reason about latency, throughput, and scaling trade-offs.
• Awareness of security and compliance in ML, including responsible-AI practices, model governance, and secure deployment (e.g., GDPR, MLOps access control).
