Document model performance, data schemas, API contracts, and deployment guides
Participate in architecture reviews and technical decision-making

Technical Skills

Core (Required)

Python — pandas, NumPy, scikit-learn, FastAPI, SQLAlchemy, Jupyter
R — data wrangling, statistical modelling, ggplot2, Shiny (for dashboards)
SQL — complex queries, window functions, CTEs; experience with data warehouses (Snowflake, BigQuery, PostgreSQL)
LLM APIs — OpenAI, Anthropic Claude API; prompt engineering, function/tool calling, RAG pipelines
REST API development and consumption; JSON, OAuth, webhook patterns
Git, GitHub/GitLab — version control, code review, CI pipelines

Deep learning frameworks — PyTorch or TensorFlow for model training

Added Advantage

Claude Code (Anthropic) — agentic coding, custom agent development, MCP integrations
Emergent AI — platform familiarity and agent deployment experience
n8n — workflow automation orchestration, custom nodes, API chaining
Computer vision — image super-resolution, ESRGAN, Real-ESRGAN, or similar architectures
MLflow, DVC, or similar — experiment tracking, model registry, reproducibility
Docker, containerisation — packaging models and services for deployment
Blockchain / Web3 basics — familiarity with Hedera or similar for IP/rights use cases
Vector databases — Pinecone, Weaviate, pgvector for embedding-based retrieval

What You Will Work On
Active projects include: an NLP sales query bot integrated with Microsoft Teams; a 2K-to-4K AI super-resolution model in collaboration with IIT Madras; P&L and revenue analytics dashboards on ERP and Data Lake; CRM data pipeline engineering across ERP, Qube Central, and Slate; and IP rights management using blockchain architecture. You will ship across all of these.
