Vetted AI & Machine Learning Professionals in the Los Angeles Metro

“Built and deployed a GPT-4-powered medical assistant for clinical staff to reduce time spent searching guidelines and EHR information, with a strong emphasis on safety and compliance. Uses strict RAG, confidence thresholds, and fallback behaviors to prevent hallucinations, and runs production-grade workflows orchestrated with LangChain/LangGraph plus Docker/Kubernetes/MLflow and monitoring for reliability and cost.”

“AI/LLM engineer who built a production autonomous GenAI content ecosystem that generates short-form scripts, extracts viral highlights from long-form video, and dubs content into 33+ languages. Focused on making LLM outputs production-safe via schema enforcement, token-to-time alignment, critic-agent verification, and scalable async orchestration—cutting manual workflows by ~90% and saving $200k+ annually.”

Junior AI/Full-Stack Engineer specializing in LLM apps and RAG systems

Los Angeles, CA1y exp

“AI engineer who built and shipped a production AI document-understanding/search system at Sumeru Inc, including a full RAG + LLMOps evaluation stack (MLflow, DeepEval, RAGAS) deployed on GCP. Also developed LangChain/LangGraph multi-agent workflows for UAV flight-log analysis and has experience presenting AI solutions to non-technical stakeholders and prospect clients to drive POCs.”

Wilson Harron

Director-level AI/ML & Computer Vision Engineer specializing in robotics and multimodal AI

Los Angeles, CA15y exp

“Candidate is not currently pursuing entrepreneurship (no business plan and no capital raised) and is not familiar with the VC/accelerator landscape. They show pragmatic, problem-first thinking about evaluating startup ideas—prioritizing real customer pain points and the quality of the founding team—and are open to working for others rather than founding "at all costs."”

“Full-stack engineer who built BrewAI, a cloud-native AI resume optimization platform on GCP using React, TypeScript, LangChain, and Gemini, with scalable async job processing and LLM safety guardrails. The product gained real-world traction when an undergraduate college in India asked students to use it for internship resume drafting, and the candidate also has team lead experience shipping an early-stage ERP system.”

Intern Applied AI Engineer specializing in LLM systems and data engineering

Los Angeles, CA1y exp

“Full-stack engineer with hands-on production experience across both traditional SaaS and LLM-powered support tooling. They owned a real-time ecommerce order tracking dashboard that improved support response times by 40%, and helped ship an AI support assistant using the OpenAI GPT API that cut ticket handling time by 30% through strong prompt design, retrieval grounding, validation, and human-in-the-loop safeguards.”

“Built and shipped a production RAG system (“TROJAN KNOWLEDGE”) for answering questions over technical PDFs, using a 3-stage retrieval stack (BM25 + FAISS + cross-encoder) to lift F1 from 71% to 84%. Drove major performance gains with a 3-level cache (memory/Redis/disk) cutting latency from ~200ms to ~10ms, and added Prometheus/Grafana monitoring plus LangChain-based fallback logic to handle OpenAI rate limits under load.”

“Built and deployed an LLM-powered mental health therapy assistant at AppHealth that segments users by stress level and delivers personalized, non-medical guidance. Implemented healthcare-focused safety guardrails (secondary LLM output filtering) and a multi-agent router workflow validated via statistical tests and therapist review, then scaled training/inference on AWS (EC2/Lambda/DynamoDB) with Kubernetes.”

Mid-level Machine Learning Engineer specializing in NLP, Generative AI, and RAG systems

Los Angeles, CA4y exp

“Built and deployed a production LLM-powered phone assistant for a healthcare clinic, combining streaming STT/TTS with RAG over approved clinic documents and strict safety guardrails to prevent unverified medical advice, plus seamless human handoff. Also has hands-on Apache Airflow experience building robust daily ML/data pipelines with data validation, retries/timeouts, monitoring, and metric-gated model deployment, and iterates closely with clinic staff using real call reviews.”

Senior AI/ML Engineer specializing in Generative AI, LLMs, and RAG systems

Irvine, CA12y exp

“AI/ML engineer with hands-on experience shipping production systems across fintech, travel, and legal use cases. They’ve built end-to-end chatbot, generative content, and RAG solutions on AWS with CI/CD, monitoring, and guardrails, including a loan application platform that generated $3,000 in sales in its first month.”
