  1. Familiarity with data products, including foundational knowledge of data production, querying, and analytics, as well as related ecosystems.
  2. Solid understanding of concepts and technologies in LLM application development (e.g., prompt engineering, knowledge retrieval, agentic systems, benchmarking); hands-on experience is a strong plus.
  3. Proficiency in Python and other programming languages, with strong coding skills.

Preferred Qualifications:
