Deliverable

production ML models | product features | dashboards & analysis | research | client delivery | infrastructure | physical/clinical work -> physical/clinical work (Note: Corrected to 'physical/clinical work' based on schema options, but context is clearly 'physical/operational work'. The schema options are fixed. 'physical/clinical work' is the closest fit for hands-on physical labor in this context, though 'infrastructure' or 'product features' are less accurate. Let's re-evaluate the schema. The schema says 'physical/clinical work'. This is a maritime role. It involves physical labor. I will use 'physical/clinical work' as the only option involving physical labor, or perhaps the schema implies 'infrastructure' for equipment? No, 'physical/clinical' is the standard for hands-on. Let's stick to the schema constraint. Actually, looking at the other options, none fit perfectly. 'physical/clinical work' is the intended bucket for manual labor roles in this specific schema design. I will use it.)
