real -time inference triggers using Kafka.

·       Optimize cost, performance, and
reliability of production ML workloads on AWS.

·       Develop PySpark and SQL
transformations to support large -scale financial datasets.

·       Ensure data quality,
reproducibility, and observability across training and inference pipelines.

·       Implement MLOps practices
including CI/CD for ML, model versioning, and automated retraining.
