Vetted AI & Machine Learning Professionals in California

“ML-focused candidate with beginner ROS/ROS2 experience (custom pub-sub nodes; TurtleBot3 SLAM simulation debugging via topic inspection and transform/orientation checks). Has research/project exposure to LLM training approaches (GRPO with pseudo-labels using Hugging Face TRL on Qwen/Llama) and uses Docker/Kubernetes + CI/CD to run ViT saliency-attention/compression workloads on UCSD Nautilus infrastructure.”

“Machine learning engineer and startup veteran building InfraSketch (infrasketch.net), a full-stack system-design/diagramming product where users describe systems in plain English and an LLM agent generates and iterates on infrastructure graphs and exports design docs. Owns the entire stack (React/TS + FastAPI/Node, DynamoDB/Postgres, AWS serverless) and focuses on LLM consistency, modular agent architecture, and production-style CI/CD and reliability patterns.”

“ML/GenAI practitioner with healthcare domain depth who built and deployed a production cervical-cancer EMR classification system using a hybrid rules + medical BERT approach, optimized for high recall under severe class imbalance and PHI constraints. Experienced running end-to-end production ML/LLM pipelines with Apache Airflow (validation, promotion/rollback, monitoring, retraining) and partnering closely with clinicians to calibrate thresholds and implement human-in-the-loop review.”

“LLM engineer who has deployed privacy-preserving, real-time workplace risk monitoring over massive enterprise chat/email streams, tackling latency, hallucinations, and extreme class imbalance with model benchmarking, RAG + fine-tuning, and a pre-filter alerting layer. Also built an agentic legal contract drafting system (Jurisagent) using LangGraph/LangChain with deterministic multi-agent control flow, structured outputs, and reliability-focused evaluation/telemetry.”

“ML/LLM practitioner with production experience building a healthcare review sentiment pipeline (RateMDs) using Hugging Face Transformers plus a LangChain+FAISS RAG layer for interactive querying. Also led orchestration-driven optimization of Nike’s Fusion ETL pipeline, improving runtime efficiency by 20%, and has experience translating ML outputs into Tableau dashboards for non-technical healthcare stakeholders (e.g., readmission risk).”

“ML/AI engineer with production experience at Shopify and Intel, building a deep learning product ranking system that lifted add-to-cart ~14% and serving real-time similarity search via FAISS+Redis under <20ms latency at massive scale. Also deployed computer vision models to 100+ retail edge locations using Docker/Ansible/k3s with zero-downtime rollouts, and applies strong MLOps practices (A/B testing, canary/shadow, observability) plus performance optimization (OpenVINO, INT8).”

“Built an "AskMyVideo" system that turns YouTube videos into queryable knowledge graphs by transcribing audio (Whisper), chunking and embedding content, and enabling traceable answers back to exact timestamps. Strong in entity resolution (rules + fuzzy matching + TF-IDF/cosine with PR-curve thresholding) and modern retrieval stacks (FAISS, hybrid dense/sparse, domain fine-tuning with ~12% precision gain), with a production mindset using Airflow/Prefect, Docker/FastAPI, and LangSmith/Prometheus/Grafana observability.”

“LLM/AI engineer with production experience building a retrieval-based document intelligence system that extracts information from PDFs/emails, backed by Python + Spark pipelines. Focused on reliability and cost/latency optimization (caching, batch processing) and has hands-on orchestration experience with Airflow (sensors, retries, alerts). Also partnered with business stakeholders to deliver customer feedback classification/summarization for faster sentiment insights.”

“Lab automation engineer building an automated weighing robot system for Lilly’s analytical chemistry group, integrating a 6-axis Mecademic robot, Mettler Toledo balance, and vision/barcode verification with safety protocols for live lab operation. Experienced in production Python for instrument control, data processing, and CV/ML, including authenticated Data Lake API integrations with fault handling. Also improved automated sample storage throughput 2–3x via pick-order optimization and partners closely with scientists to deliver MVP-to-production experimental automation workflows.”

“AI/ML engineer (Cognizant) who built a production, real-time credit card fraud detection platform combining deep-learning anomaly detection with an LLM-based explanation layer. Strong focus on regulated deployment: addressed class imbalance and feature drift, and added guardrails (SHAP/structured inputs, fine-tuning on analyst reports, rule-based validation) to keep explanations accurate and compliant. Orchestrated the full pipeline with Airflow + Databricks/Spark and used MLflow/Prometheus plus A/B and shadow deployments for measurable reliability.”
