  • Provide feedback that directly shapes the next generation of AI models
  • Knowledge of Machine Learning Operations (MLOps) workflows and tools for deploying, managing, and monitoring AI models in production
  • Actively participate in design, discussions, and delivery—not just governance—with hands‑on engagement
