  • Strong practical experience using generative AI tools to improve analysis, documentation, coding, research, workflow automation, or business productivity.

  • Working knowledge of LLM concepts, including prompting, context windows, retrieval, hallucination risk, structured outputs, model selection, and evaluation tradeoffs.

  • Familiarity with applied AI patterns such as RAG, embeddings, vector search, document extraction, tool calling, agentic workflows, and human-in-the-loop review.

  • Strong programming and data skills, including Python, SQL, and tools/libraries used in agentic development like langgraph, langchain, Pydantic models, NumPy, FastAPI/MCP, etc.

  • Ability to work with APIs, JSON, MCPs, Git or version-controlled artifacts, and lightweight automation or prototyping workflows.

  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to translate business needs into technical requirements and explain AI concepts in plain language.

  • Strong problem-solving skills, curiosity, attention to detail, and ability to work independently while collaborating across commercial, technology, and control functions.
