- Familiarity with large language model platforms (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, etc.)
- Experience designing effective prompts and validating AI-generated output
- Understanding of human-in-the-loop development and responsible AI usage
- Ability to evaluate AI-generated outputs for correctness, performance, safety, and bias — especially in regulated or safety-critical environments
- Experience incorporating AI/ML techniques into software engineering workflows
- Experience with automated testing frameworks
Core Technical Qualifications
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or related field with 4+ years of relevant experience OR Master’s degree with 2+ years of relevant experience
