Project Scope:
The team is developing an AI-powered Recruiting Intelligence Platform designed to transform how the recruiting team reviews, sorts, and identifies top talent. The system will leverage Generative AI and advanced data processing to analyze and categorize large volumes of resumes, enabling recruiters to efficiently surface candidates with the right skills, experience, and cultural fit.

- Contribute to retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), multimodal OCR/ICR, and other advanced AI patterns.
Must-Have Skills
