- Hands-on experience in leveraging and building AI-driven tools (e.g., LLMs, Agents, AI workflows) to improve analytical efficiency and solve business problems. Ability to evaluate and refine AI outputs effectively.
- Familiarity with or experience working on e-commerce open platforms, developer ecosystems, or API integrations for merchants.
