  • Strong Python skills with practical experience in PyTorch and/or TensorFlow for building and deploying models.

  • Proven track record with data-driven growth systems: lead scoring, conversion prediction, user modeling, or campaign optimization.

  • Experience integrating with marketing and CRM platforms (e.g. HubSpot, Salesforce) in ML-driven workflows.

  • Familiarity with advertising APIs (e.g. Google Ads, Meta Ads) for model-driven campaign optimization.

  • Experience with LLMs, recommender systems, and generative AI techniques.

  • Strong cross-functional communication skills to bridge technical and growth teams.

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, or a related field — or equivalent practical experience.
