Familiarity with agentic systems and multi-step execution loops, including planning, tool use, retrieval, recovery, and long-running workflows.
Understanding of tools, skills, and evaluation frameworks for AI systems, including how to design reliable tool interfaces and measure quality through structured evals.
Experience building data pipelines and turning large-scale behavioral and business data into signals, scores, and recommendations.
Expertise in component-based libraries and frameworks, with a strong grasp of building performant, high-quality user experiences.
Proficiency in C++, C#, Java, Python, or similar programming languages.
