5+ years of relevant experience in new, competitive, fast-paced and ambiguous environments with a track record of building and scaling complex AI/ML or infrastructure solutions

Technical skills

- Very good understanding of training pipelines, RL loops, and model deployment architectures,

- Expertise in AI model lifecycle management, including fine-tuning, evaluation, and serving.

- Experience with Infrastructure as Code (IaC), containerization, and scalable deployment modes (e.g., on-prem, VPC, cloud). Familiarity with Kubernetes/Slurm is a strong plus.

User obsession

Relentless focus on solving real user problems, backed by data and qualitative insights.

Cross-functional influence

Proven ability to align and inspire engineering, design, and go-to-market teams without direct authority.

Problem-solving

Balance big-picture thinking with hands-on problem-solving - you're equally comfortable crafting a roadmap, diving into metrics and running technical tests.

Communication: Crisp, persuasive storytelling for executives, teams, and users - ability to distill complex technical concepts (e.g., RL, LoRA, SFT) into clear narratives for docs, decks, and workshops.

Adaptability: Thrive in high-velocity, dynamic settings where priorities shift quickly.

Collaboration: Low ego + high EQ - you build trust and drive decisions through clarity, not hierarchy.

Autonomy: Self-directed with a bias for action, you own outcomes end-to-end.

- Strong understanding how complex architectures are designed and impact of deployment modes

- Proficient coding skills are strongly recommended
