• Strong hands‑on experience with cloud‑based AI/ML services (AWS, Azure and/or GCP).
• Advanced proficiency in Python and experience with AI/ML frameworks such as TensorFlow, PyTorch or Scikit‑learn.
• Experience designing and executing testing strategies for AI/ML systems, including functional, performance and model‑level validation.
• Solid understanding of MLOps practices, version control (e.g., Git) and CI/CD pipelines for AI systems.
• Experience working in Agile delivery environments.

Ideally, you’ll also have

• Deep understanding of AI testing methodologies, including bias and fairness testing, robustness testing, explainability and security testing.
• Hands‑on experience with Large Language Models (LLMs), Natural Language Processing (NLP) and generative AI frameworks.
