Narasimha Jwalapuram
Mid-level Applied AI Engineer specializing in LLM agents, RAG, and model alignment
“Applied Scientist with legal-tech experience who builds production LLM systems. Created and deployed Quibo AI, a LangGraph-based multi-agent pipeline that turns large markdown/Jupyter inputs into polished blogs and social posts, overcoming context limits via ChromaDB + HyDE RAG. Also built a large-scale iterative code-evolution workflow using multi-model orchestration (GPT/Claude/Gemini) with testing, debugging loops, and evaluation/observability practices.”
Mid-level AI Engineer specializing in LLM agents, RAG, and enterprise GenAI
Sayuj Shah
Mid-level Data Analyst & AI Practitioner specializing in ML, LLMs, and analytics platforms
“Data Analyst at U.S. Cellular who built production LLM solutions, including a Tableau-embedded chatbot that converts natural language questions into Oracle SQL and returns actionable KPI insights for non-technical users. Also authored MAD-CTI, a multi-agent LLM system for dark web hacker forum threat intelligence (published in IEEE Access) that outperformed single-agent approaches by 14%.”
Josiah Aviles
Senior AI/ML Software Engineer specializing in Generative AI and RAG systems
“Built and owned Alight's AI-powered Search Summary feature end-to-end, using a RAG pipeline with OpenSearch and Bedrock, and drove a 20% increase in user feedback scores. Stands out for bringing rigorous production evaluation to LLM systems via live LLM-as-a-judge monitoring, and for experience with advanced agentic architectures, hybrid search, and reranking at scale.”

Manav Nagda
Mid-level Automation & Robotics Engineer specializing in industrial controls and computer vision
“Robotics software engineer with hands-on experience building an AGV for warehouse autonomy at Kick Robotics, working across SLAM, waypoint navigation, computer vision, and ROS2/RViz simulation. Demonstrated strong on-site troubleshooting by diagnosing a real-world mapping stall via log analysis (coordinate reset bug) and deploying a fix. Also has industrial automation experience coordinating SCARA robots via EtherNet/IP and multi-robot/swarm simulations using MQTT pub-sub.”
Junior AI Engineer specializing in RAG systems and full-stack development
MANOGNA VADLAMUDI
Junior AI Engineer specializing in LLM evaluation, prompt engineering, and AI orchestration
“LLM workflow builder who has deployed a personalized GPT experience (including Delphi AI-based knowledge ingestion) and built a LangChain/LangGraph job-aggregation pipeline that ingests, normalizes/dedupes, filters, then uses an LLM to rank and summarize matches. Emphasizes production reliability with structured outputs, retries/fallbacks, metric-driven evaluation, logging/prompt versioning, and A/B testing, and collaborates with non-technical stakeholders through demo-driven iteration.”
Junior Machine Learning Engineer specializing in real-time inference and production ML systems
