  • Technical proficiency with AI frameworks like TensorFlow, PyTorch, Hugging Face, OpenAI API, or similar.
  • Proven ability to integrate AI systems via APIs and automation scripts.
  • Analytics-driven mindset: experience tracking model metrics and improving datasets.
  • Collaborative communicator, capable of working with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills, especially around AI scalability and optimization.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with AI in translation/localization tools or content management systems.
  • Familiarity with MLOps/AIops and cloud-based AI infrastructure (e.g. Azure, AWS).
  • Experience in Agile/Scrum environments using tools like Jira & Confluence.
  • Deep awareness of AI ethics and bias mitigation strategies.
