• Hands‑on experience with or exposure to platforms such as Informatica, Salesforce Data Cloud, Azure Dataverse, or similar enterprise data solutions.
• Strong understanding of data and AI architecture concepts, including relational and NoSQL data stores, data modeling, metadata management, APIs, event streaming, and real‑time processing.
• Experience working with AI and ML‑enabled systems, such as intelligent matching, recommendations, classification, or decisioning.
• Familiarity with AI agents, orchestration frameworks, or agent‑like architectures that combine data, reasoning, and action.
• Experience working with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP) and modern SaaS delivery models.
• Familiarity with data governance, security, privacy, and compliance requirements in enterprise environments.
