Assessment Reasoning

NOT_FIT decision based on significant experience mismatch. Role requires 5-8 years of production ML systems experience, but candidate has only ~1.5 years total experience with no production ML background. Missing critical skills including PyTorch/TensorFlow at scale, MLOps, cloud platforms, Docker/Kubernetes, and CI/CD. While academically strong with high growth potential, the gap between current level and senior requirements is too large.
