Experience in creating AI-driven applications
Proficiency in Python
Experience deploying and scaling applications on cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, Google Cloud, Azure)
Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and DevOps practices to streamline development workflows.
Knowledge of secure coding practices and mitigating vulnerabilities in web applications
Exposure to machine learning frameworks (e.g., TensorFlow, PyTorch) or working with AI APIs (e.g., OpenAI, Hugging Face)
Contributions to open-source projects or an active GitHub/portfolio showcasing relevant work
Experience with testing frameworks (e.g., Jest, Playwright) to ensure code quality
