• Data & Evaluation: work with real-world datasets, contribute to evaluation pipelines, and help measure system performance.
• Production Code: write clean, maintainable Python and contribute to code that runs in production systems.
• AI-Assisted Development: use tools like Cursor and Claude Code to accelerate development, while learning good engineering practices.
• Collaboration & Learning: work closely with experienced engineers, product managers, and data teams, learning how to ship impactful features.
