If you let researchers write production code, you are asking for troubles. And that comes from someone who is doing research, is a programming enthusiast and had programming as a day job for some time. If I made such job add, the most important for me would be the ML experience and publication skills. This is something you can't teach in a short time. As for the rest of it - it would be good enough that the candidates would not hurt themselves while using those tools and languages. At least there will be less unlearning to do... Martin
