Preferred Qualifications

Experience with other low-code/no-code platforms (e.g., REplit, Make (Integromat), n8n).

Familiarity with AI/ML APIs (e.g., OpenAI, Google AI) and their practical application in automation.

Experience with version control systems, particularly Git.

Knowledge of DevOps principles for CI/CD in the context of low-code deployment.
