• Experience working with LLMs and AI tools (LangChain, OpenAI APIs, or similar);
• Ability to rapidly prototype and iterate solutions;
• Ability to work independently and manage priorities;
• Strong communication skills across technical and business stakeholders;
• Comfort working in fast-paced environments;
• Upper-intermediate English level.
