  • Strong understanding of Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), embeddings, vector search, chunking strategies, and prompt engineering. 
  • Experience building document extraction, information retrieval, and structured data mapping solutions from unstructured content. 
  • Expertise implementing MCP servers and AI-driven service integrations using FastMCP or similar frameworks. 
  • Experience designing and supporting Kafka-based event-driven architectures and messaging systems. 
  • Strong knowledge of Neo4j graph databases, schema design, and Cypher queries. 
  • Proficiency in Python and experience with TypeScript/Node.js for AI and API development. 
  • Experience developing REST APIs using FastAPI, Node.js, or similar frameworks. 
  • Familiarity with Azure APIM, OAuth2, RBAC, and cloud-native security practices.
