- Hands-on experience with modern Machine/Deep Learning frameworks such as PyTorch, TensorFlow, or Hugging Face Transformers.
- Familiarity with both pre-training and fine-tuning of large-scale models.
- Experience working with structured and unstructured data, such as text, logs, or time series and tokenisation techniques.
- A strong understanding of probability, statistics, machine learning and familiarity with large data set manipulation.
- Experience in producing reliable and maintainable code in Python, with an ability to adapt to new languages and technologies.
- Ability to communicate findings to a diverse business-focused audience, influencing others in both verbal and written form.
- A drive for continued learning through an internal and external focus, in order to develop enterprise and industry-leading solutions.
