- Experience working with labeled datasets and annotation outputs, including reviewing label quality
- Understanding of common ML problem types, including binary and multi-label classification
- Awareness of model bias, label noise, and false positives, with the ability to discuss tradeoffs and mitigation strategies
- Basic understanding of production ML workflows (versioning, reproducibility, monitoring concepts)
