    Covers the entire workflow from training and saving to Hugging Face and Ollama.

Basic understanding of Large Language Models (LLMs) and the Transformer architecture.
Familiarity with the Hugging Face ecosystem, particularly the Transformers, PEFT, and Datasets libraries.
Foundational knowledge of machine learning training concepts, including loss functions, learning rates, epochs, and overfitting.
Experience in Python programming and preparing structured training data, such as JSONL files, for instruction tuning.
Techniques for model quantization (e.g., converting models to GGUF or AWQ formats) to reduce memory usage and optimize local inference on Ollama.
Advanced alignment methodologies, such as Direct Preference Optimization (DPO) or Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF), to better align model outputs with human preferences.
Systematic LLM evaluation frameworks to benchmark the fine-tuned model's performance, checking for regression, bias, or hallucinations.
Integrating the fine-tuned model from Ollama into production applications using frameworks like LangChain, LlamaIndex, or building Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines.
