- Experience with agent frameworks (LangChain, AutoGen, Semantic Kernel, Haystack).
- Knowledge of prompt design, RAG workflows, and LLM integration best practices.
- Strong background in NLP pipelines (NER, sentiment, text classification, search).
- Experience with multimodal AI (text, audio, video), computer vision, or emotion analysis.
- Knowledge of data pipelines/ETL for AI workloads.
- Understanding of enterprise AI security, compliance, and governance.
- Azure certifications or prior enterprise-scale Azure deployments.
