  • Expertise in NLP techniques, including speech recognition, text classification, named entity recognition (NER), and transformer-based models.
  • Hands-on experience with LLMs (large language models) and integrating them into real-time, low-latency data processing systems.
  • Strong background in cloud computing (AWS), including deploying ML models using services like SageMaker, Lambda, API Gateway, and ECS.
  • Experience with multi-lingual NLP systems and working with diverse linguistic datasets.
  • Demonstrated ability to research, experiment, and implement innovative ML techniques in production settings.
  • Strong communication skills to present complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Preferred Qualifications
