• Experienced in vector databases and RAG frameworks (e.g., Pinecone, FAISS)
• Comfortable writing glue code in Python
• Bonus: Hands-on with LangChain, LlamaIndex, or custom AI agents
• Thinks in tradeoffs and knows when to use closed vs. open models
• Strong product thinking and a bias toward action
