Intern Software Engineer specializing in ML applications and LLM platform engineering

New York, NY1y exp

“Full-stack engineer who builds and scales customer-facing and internal AI products end-to-end (React/TypeScript/FastAPI/MongoDB) with strong product instrumentation and rapid MVP iteration. Built an AI-powered code review assistant adopted across teams and integrated into CI/CD, reducing manual review time by 30%+, and has hands-on experience with LLM retrieval/reasoning systems (LangChain + FAISS) and microservices scaling using RabbitMQ, Docker, and AWS.”

“Built and deployed a full-stack web product for international football fans visiting the U.S. for FIFA, owning everything from crawling and aggregating event data to frontend, backend, deployment, and maintenance. Particularly strong in data-heavy product work, using LLMs, Google Maps API, and SQL/RPC patterns to improve data quality, speed implementation, and support a polished user experience.”

“Built and shipped a production LLM-powered document processing agent (ingestion→OCR→LLM extraction/classification→validation→DB/workflow triggers) using Kafka and PostgreSQL. Emphasizes production reliability with strict JSON schemas, idempotent services, retries/backoff, fallback models, and human-in-the-loop review—driving ~90% automation, minutes-to-seconds processing, and ~10x throughput.”
