- Understand how to evaluate and operate AI systems in production, including managing hallucination risk, latency, reliability, context limits and variable model costs
- Are comfortable working with structured and unstructured data, building integrations and turning information from multiple sources into useful systems
- Have an interest in commercial problems and can understand concepts such as ICP, segmentation, pipeline, buyer intent and sales workflows; direct GTM experience is beneficial but not essential
