* Advanced Python skills and experience with frameworks like PyTorch, TensorFlow, and HuggingFace
* Experience building full ML pipelines from data ingestion to deployment
* Solid software engineering practices including testing, version control, and CI/CD
* Strong communication and collaboration skills, especially with non-technical stakeholders
* Interest in applying AI to healthcare or other high-impact domains
Nice to Have:
* Experience in healthcare, clinical AI, or medical data
* Knowledge of model safety, bias monitoring, or regulatory frameworks
