  • Strong Python programming skills (2+ years) and experience with version control (e.g., Git).
  • Solid understanding of optimization methods such as mixed-integer programming, constraint programming, and advanced heuristic techniques.
  • Experience writing technical content for adult learners and delivering instructor-led training (in-person and virtual).
  • Ability to collaborate with SMEs and stakeholders to create and refine high-quality learning content.
  • Strong communication skills, with the ability to clearly explain complex technical concepts.
