Senior Machine Learning Engineer specializing in LLMs, speech AI, and RAG systems

Chicago, IL3y exp

“AI engineer with production experience building multilingual speech-to-speech translation pipelines (ASR + LLM) for enterprise/media, focused on reliability at scale. Has hands-on orchestration experience (including IBM Watson contexts) and emphasizes production evaluation/monitoring using a mix of traditional metrics and LLM-based evaluators to catch quality regressions while balancing latency and cost.”

“AI/ML engineer with forensic analytics and healthcare claims experience (Optum), building production LLM/RAG systems to surface context-driven fraud patterns from unstructured claim notes and explain risk to investigators. Strong in large-scale retrieval performance tuning, legacy API integration with reliability patterns (SQS, circuit breakers), and MLOps orchestration on Airflow/Kubernetes with rigorous testing, monitoring, and stakeholder-friendly interpretability.”

“Built end-to-end ML and GenAI systems at Northern Trust, including a production RAG-based document intelligence platform for financial reports and contracts. Stands out for combining strong MLOps execution with practical product judgment—improving forecast accuracy by 22%, document review accuracy by 38%, and cutting deployment time by 45% while keeping latency and reliability production-ready.”

“Built a production multi-agent LLM system at Live Nation on Databricks (LangGraph/LangChain) that let venue/event teams ask questions in Slack, auto-generated optimized route schedules, and produced inventory/stocking recommendations from historical SQL data and venue trends. Improved reliability by tightening prompts with strict JSON schemas, providing sample questions/SQL, and adding guardrails plus synthetic/edge-case testing, while iterating with event managers and senior VPs via prototypes and feedback loops.”

“Analytics professional with Intuit experience spanning modern data stack work, behavioral segmentation, and applied AI. They built dbt/Snowflake pipelines powering retention and churn dashboards, automated feedback classification with OpenAI/LangChain, and partnered closely with product and marketing teams to turn analytics into onboarding, targeting, and lifecycle messaging decisions.”
