• Deep understanding of AI/ML algorithms, including deep learning and generative AI techniques.

• Must have AI Hygiene with Model/Agents inferencing, tracing and serving tools and techniques.

• Experience with modeling techniques including Statistics (Hypothesis testing, Regression), Machine Learning (Classification, Clustering), and AI Algorithms (GenAI/NLP, Deep Learning).

• Experience working with GCP, BigQuery/SQL, Python, and Spark.

Even better if you have one or more of the following:

• Two or more years of experience in the telecom network domain.

• Experience in building scoring models and anomaly detection solutions.

• Experience with developing and deploying machine learning models to production.
