Assessment Reasoning
NOT_FIT decision based on fundamental qualification mismatch. The role requires a PhD with 5-8 years of research experience, strong publication record in top-tier ML venues, deep expertise in PyTorch/JAX, and proven research methodology skills. The candidate's background is in full-stack web development with Django, lacking the essential academic credentials, research experience, and specialized ML/AI technical skills. While they has some AI project experience, it appears to be application-level rather than research-focused. The experience gap is too substantial for a senior research position.
