Skills Taxonomy — Evidence-First

Canonical authority: resume_builder/canonical/claims.json. This file helps select and group skills; it may not promote a skill beyond its canonical evidence level.

Evidence Levels

Level Meaning Output rule
Production — current Used in current professional delivery May appear plainly when relevant
Production — historical Shipped professionally, but not current Include with role/date context when recency matters
Hands-on — current Used directly, but without verified production ownership Use precise verbs such as used, configured or integrated
Project / proof of concept Used in a bounded PoC Label the PoC; never imply platform-scale operation
Certification / coursework Learned through formal study Keep in certification context; not professional experience
Unverified / never used No reliable evidence Do not include

Do not use Expert/Proficient/Familiar labels in resumes. Evidence and recency are more useful than self-ratings.

Current Production Core

Skill Evidence Typical use
Python Swisscom pipelines/apps; prior Bosch/Vizrt work Always for data/platform roles
SQL Swisscom and prior data roles Always for data roles
PySpark Swisscom current work When distributed processing is relevant
Apache Kafka Swisscom production ingestion Data/event-driven roles
Apache Airflow Swisscom AWS migration scope Orchestration/data roles
AWS Swisscom production work; SAA certification AWS-relevant roles
S3, Glue, Athena, Iceberg, Redshift Swisscom owned-domain migration/data products Name only relevant services
CloudFormation / IaC Swisscom production provisioning Say CloudFormation; never substitute Terraform
Kubernetes, Docker Swisscom application delivery; Bosch ML integration Production platform/MLOps roles
GitLab CI/CD Swisscom delivery Platform and engineering roles
Oracle, Teradata Swisscom pipelines Data roles when relevant

Historical Production Evidence

Skill Evidence Constraint
Java Bosch, Fraunhofer, Generali Historical; do not imply current daily use
C# Bosch and Fraunhofer Historical; strong when Spotfire/.NET is relevant
C++ Vizrt distributed backend Limited historical evidence
JavaScript / Express.js Fraunhofer MISSION Historical and bounded; TypeScript is unverified
Hadoop / Impala Bosch data services Historical production context
Ansible Bosch ML integration Historical production context
Jenkins Fraunhofer and Generali Historical production context
BDD, Selenium, JBehave Generali Earlier-career testing evidence
TIBCO Spotfire Bosch co-ownership and C# extensions Preserve co-ownership

ML, AI and Observability

Skill Evidence level Safe framing
ML inference deployment Production — historical Integrated containerized inference into a 24/7 Bosch fab
Image classification Production application context Worked on inference integration; model-training ownership not verified
MLOps Bounded production evidence Use only when defined as deployment/operation, not full model lifecycle
NLP / speech recognition Research-project contribution Contributed components at Fraunhofer; no publication/model ownership
ELK, Kafka anomaly detection Proof of concept Always retain the PoC label
Grafana, Prometheus, Loki Proof-of-concept/monitoring context Do not imply enterprise observability ownership
LiteLLM Hands-on — current LLM API gateway use/integration; no serving-platform ownership
Domain-grounded assistants/custom GPTs Hands-on — current Configured with curated knowledge; no fine-tuning or formal evaluation
Copilot, Kiro Hands-on — current AI-assisted engineering tools, not LLM product engineering

Certification-Only Signals

Skill Evidence
TensorFlow / Keras IBM AI Engineering coursework
PyTorch Coursework/personal evidence only; verify before listing outside certification context
Spark ML Coursework context only unless professional evidence is added
AI for Trading / quantitative ML Udacity/WorldQuant Nanodegree

Forbidden Until New Evidence Is Added

  • LangChain, LangGraph, LlamaIndex, AutoGen, CrewAI or Semantic Kernel
  • Azure, Azure ML, Azure OpenAI or AKS
  • GCP, BigQuery, Dataflow or Flume hands-on experience
  • Terraform
  • Formal model or LLM evaluation
  • LLM fine-tuning, red-teaming or model-training ownership
  • FastAPI, Flask or Django
  • TypeScript
  • Petabyte-scale ownership

Certifications

Certification Issuer Year/status
AWS Certified Solutions Architect — Associate AWS 2024; active to Sep 2027
Data Engineering with AWS Nanodegree Udacity 2026
iSAQB CPSA — Foundation iSAQB 2016; no expiry
ITIL Foundation PEOPLECERT / AXELOS 2016; no expiry
AI for Trading Nanodegree Udacity / WorldQuant 2021
IBM AI Engineering Specialization IBM / Coursera Completion year not recorded

The Swisscom Security Champion assignment is not a certification and does not belong in this table.

Resume Grouping

Use 4--6 compact lines, selected for the JD. A normal International Tech grouping is:

  1. Languages: Python, SQL; selected historical languages only when required.
  2. Data: Kafka, Airflow, PySpark, Oracle/Teradata, data products and governance.
  3. Cloud/platform: AWS services, CloudFormation, Kubernetes, Docker, GitLab CI/CD.
  4. ML/operations: ML inference deployment and bounded observability evidence.
  5. Certifications: one line, only the most relevant credentials.

Never add a skill only to mirror a JD. Every listed skill must have a canonical evidence level and an interview-ready example.
