• Fluency in English, both verbal and written

• Willingness to work a schedule that includes overlap with US East Coast day shift (specifically for weekly staff meetings and initial training)

Even Better if You Have:

• A Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Statistics, Electrical Engineering or a related field

• The ability to interpret existing automation workflows and further enhance their capabilities

• Experience with large-scale IT systems and infrastructure

• Strong technical background in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and/or Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) concepts and their application to solve real-world business problems.
