<p>Proven experience integrating AI/ML into real-world products, with ownership of the full lifecycle — from modeling and evaluation to deployment and go-to-market execution.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Experience working with large language models (e.g., prompt engineering, fine-tuning, model selection, retrieval-augmented generation)</p>
