  • Solid experience in software development, with proficiency in languages such as Python, Java, or C++, writing clean, efficient, and maintainable code for production grade AI solutions.

  • Hands-on experience deploying AI/ML models to production environments, with a good understanding of MLOps practices including CI/CD pipelines, model versioning, and monitoring.

  • Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP) and cloud-native AI tools such as SageMaker, Vertex AI, or Azure ML Studio.

  • Working knowledge of containerization technologies (e.g., Docker) and orchestration tools (e.g., Kubernetes) to build and manage scalable AI solutions.

  • Skills in data engineering, including building data pipelines, data wrangling, and integrating AI solutions with enterprise data systems.

  • Exposure to agile software development practices and experience working in agile teams.

  • Strong interpersonal skills, with the ability to collaborate with cross-functional teams, translate technical requirements into actionable solutions, and communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

   

  Desirable Experience:

  • BSc, MSc, or PhD in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Software Engineering, or a related field.

  • Familiarity with Workday APIs, data structures, and integration patterns.

  • Experience designing and implementing generative AI solutions using large language models (e.g., OpenAI GPT, Hugging Face Transformers).

  • Exposure to deep learning techniques (e.g., CNNs, RNNs, Transformers) applied to real-world problems.

  • Participation in knowledge-sharing activities such as conferences, workshops, or blogs.
