What we’re looking for:
— 2+ years of experience as an NLP/ML Engineer
— Proficiency in Python and familiarity with ML/NLP frameworks
— Strong experience in core NLP tasks (classification, entity recognition, etc.)
— Proven track record in designing, developing, and deploying ML models
— Experience optimizing model performance and efficiency for production
Nice to have:
— Experience with voice-bot development or audio processing
— Familiarity with AWS (EC2, S3, Lambda, SageMaker)
— Experience with Terraform or other Infrastructure-as-Code tools
— Experience with containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes)
