  • Ability to design efficient algorithms for data enrichment, entity extraction, or semantic analysis.
  • Solid programming skills in Python (or similar), and familiarity with NLP libraries (e.g. spaCy, NLTK, Hugging Face).
  • Familarize with Retrieval Augmented Generative (RAG), LLM framework such as Langchain/Langgraph.
  • Strong collaboration skills and comfort working in a startup or agile environment.
Bonus Points
  • Experience integrating AI models into production software.
  • Familiarity with cybersecurity or enterprise SaaS domains.
  • Knowledge of knowledge graphs or metadata enrichment techniques.
💥 Why You’ll Love Working With Us
