- Proficiency in Python and experience working in Linux environments with Docker or similar containerization tools.
- Practical knowledge of synthetic data quality, evaluation metrics, and the limitations of generated data.
- Experience building automated systems for generating, validating, mutating, or processing structured datasets at scale.
- Background in AI agent or language model evaluation, benchmarks, testing environments, or post-training workflows.
