- Familiarity with SQL/NoSQL databases, and integrating with cloud platforms like Snowflake or Databricks
- Experience with state management, session handling, and efficient data flows across distributed applications
- Bonus if you’ve worked with the Kubernetes ecosystem for scalable ML deployment
- Experience with monitoring, logging, and observability in production systems
- Understanding of authentication protocols and security best practices

- Previous experience supporting tabular ML models or similar ML deployments
