- Hands-on proficiency with AI/ML tools and platforms, including large language models (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic, Azure OpenAI), AI orchestration frameworks, and no-code/low-code AI tooling.
- Working knowledge of prompt engineering, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), and AI agent workflows.
- Experience with enterprise data environments: CRM platforms (Salesforce, Dynamics, or similar), data integration tools, APIs, and structured/unstructured data handling.

- Understanding of data governance, security, and compliance considerations relevant to institutional financial services.
- Strong grasp of front, mid, and back-office workflows in private markets or investment management — including LP/investor relations, fundraising, deal origination, portfolio monitoring, and reporting.
- Ability to map business processes, identify workflow inefficiencies, and articulate where AI creates measurable operational or commercial value.
