All of them. swipeandhired applies on every applicant tracking system (ATS) employers use, including Workday, SmartRecruiters, Greenhouse, iCIMS, Lever, Ashby, Taleo, SuccessFactors, Oracle Cloud and Jobvite, and on a company's own careers page when it uses none of them.

Closed-Loop Learning: Build feedback mechanisms that capture customer interactions and business outcomes to continuously improve recommendations.
Databricks & AWS Engineering: Develop reliable data and ML pipelines using Python, PySpark, SQL, Databricks, and AWS.
MLOps: Implement model deployment, serving, versioning, monitoring, CI/CD, and retraining workflows.
Agentic AI: Architect and develop production-grade agentic AI applications, including LLM orchestration, tool integration, evaluation, and guardrails.
Technical Leadership: Lead architecture decisions, establish engineering standards, mentor engineers, and collaborate across technical and business teams.

Qualifications

Required

10+ years of experience in ML engineering, software engineering, or related technical disciplines, with demonstrated technical leadership.
Programming: Expert-level Python and strong SQL skills; experience with APIs, microservices, and production software development.
Data Engineering: Expert-level PySpark and Apache Spark; experience building reliable data and feature pipelines.
Cloud & ML Platforms: Deep hands-on Databricks expertise (Delta Lake, Unity Catalog, Workflows) and strong AWS experience (S3, IAM, compute, and application integration).
ML Engineering & MLOps: Experience supporting the full production ML lifecycle, including model integration, deployment, serving, monitoring, versioning, and retraining. Familiarity with MLflow and CI/CD.
Real-Time Decisioning: Experience building low-latency inference services, decisioning APIs, and scalable recommendation systems.
Agentic AI: Hands-on experience developing LLM-powered or agentic AI applications, including orchestration, tool calling, and enterprise integrations.
System Architecture: Proven ability to independently architect and deliver complex, reliable enterprise systems.

Preferred

Hands-on experience developing or training ML models.
Experience building Next Best Action, recommendation, personalization, or decision optimization platforms.
Familiarity with contextual bandits, reinforcement learning, uplift modeling, or ranking algorithms.
Experience with LangGraph, LangChain, or similar agentic AI frameworks.
Experience in insurance, financial services, or other regulated industries.
