- Proven track record of designing and implementing ML/Data Platforms or Feature Stores that directly support production AI/ML models.
- Deep expertise in distributed systems, cloud infrastructure, and large-scale data processing (e.g., vector search, data versioning).
- Strong background in data infrastructure and API design, particularly serving data for machine learning consumption.
- Experience in a domain where AI/ML is critical to the core business (e.g., pricing, optimization, recommendations).
- Prior experience with computer vision pipelines or handling large-scale image/video data for ML.
- Familiarity with the technical challenges of managing compute and data versioning to optimize ML iteration cycles.
- Experience with agentic optimization frameworks.
