Popular Titles
Tanweer Ashif
Mid-level AI/ML Engineer and Data Scientist specializing in LLMs and MLOps
“Data science/AI intern at University at Buffalo Business Services who built and deployed production systems spanning classic ML and LLM assistants. Delivered real-time competitor intelligence for a Cornell-partnered, $1B beverage launch by scraping/cleaning 5,000+ SKUs and deploying models via API, then built a domain-aware LLM assistant to modernize Excel-based workflows with strong grounding, privacy controls, and sub-5s latency.”
Nikhil Tatikonda
Intern AI/ML Engineer specializing in LLM agents, RAG, and automation workflows
“AI automation builder who shipped an OpenAI-powered weekly "trending AI tools" WoW reporting system (65 categories) that reduced a 6–7 hour manual process to ~10 minutes at negligible API cost. Also building a RAG-based content creation prompt engine that turns PDFs into storyboards with fact-checking/traceback to source lines, plus experience with AWS deployment components (Lambda, ECR, App Runner, Bedrock, API Gateway) and GitHub Actions.”
ATHARVA WADEKAR
Junior Full-Stack & AI Engineer specializing in computer vision and cloud platforms
“Early-career backend engineer and solo builder of FrameFindr, an AI/OCR-based marathon photo tagging product used at live events. Demonstrated pragmatic scaling under tight infrastructure constraints (2GB VPS) and hands-on ownership of architecture, API design, auth (Google OAuth/JWT), and a MongoDB-to-MySQL migration with data-integrity safeguards.”
Sonam Chhatani
Mid-level AI Engineer specializing in causal inference and LLM research
“LLM engineer who has deployed a production system combining LLMs with causal inference (DoWhy) to enable counterfactual “what-if” analysis for experimental research, including a robust variable-mapping/validation layer to reduce hallucinations. Also partnered with non-technical operations leadership at Irriion Technologies to deliver an AI-assisted onboarding workflow that cut onboarding time by 50% and reduced manual errors by ~40%.”
Lavan Gajula
Mid-level GenAI Engineer specializing in LLM agents and production AI workflows
“Designed and deployed end-to-end LLM-powered AI agent systems to automate knowledge-intensive workflows across marketing/GTM, recruiting, and support. Brings production reliability rigor (evaluation pipelines, monitoring, testing, A/B experiments) plus orchestration expertise (Airflow, Prefect, custom Python) and a track record of translating non-technical stakeholder goals into working AI solutions (e.g., personalized customer engagement agent at Lara Design).”
Phani Tarun Munukuntla
Junior Machine Learning Engineer specializing in LLMs, NLP, and MLOps
“Developed and productionized VL-Mate, a vision-language, LLM-powered assistant aimed at helping visually impaired users understand their surroundings and query internal knowledge. Emphasizes reliability and safety via confidence thresholds, uncertainty-aware fallbacks, hallucination grounding checks, and rigorous offline + user-in-the-loop evaluation, with experience orchestrating multi-step LLM pipelines (LangChain-style and custom Python async) and deploying on containerized infrastructure.”
Meghana Chowdary Borra
Junior Machine Learning Engineer specializing in predictive modeling and GenAI RAG systems
“LLM engineer who built and deployed an emotionally intelligent AAC communication system using an emotion-aware RAG pipeline (Empathetic Dialogues + GoEmotions) and a PEFT-adapted model. Experienced with LangChain/LangGraph and custom Python orchestration, focusing on reliability (guards, schema validation, fallbacks), latency optimization, and rigorous evaluation (automatic metrics + human-in-the-loop), with a reported 18% user satisfaction improvement.”
Satya Srinivas Bokka
Entry-level AI Engineer specializing in LLM agents, RAG, and computer vision
“Robotics/AV-focused candidate who contributed to an F1TENTH autonomous vehicle college project, building key autonomy components from raw sensor data to driving commands. Strong in perception and state estimation (visual odometry, particle-filter localization), plus mapping (occupancy grids) and planning/control (RRT, Gap Follow, PID), with hands-on ROS tooling and simulation validation in Gazebo/RViz and ROS environment containerization using Docker.”

Priyank Jhaveri
Junior AI/ML & Mobile Engineer specializing in LLMs, synthetic data, and React Native
“Currently at Uplift AI shipping production LLM features that generate personalized growth insights from user reflections using BERT + embeddings + RAG, with strong safety/guardrail practices for sensitive contexts. Also built an end-to-end React Native UGC challenge submission/moderation system that improved repeat submissions and 7-day retention, and has applied rigorous clinical-style evaluation methods on a dental X-ray disease detection project to reduce false negatives.”
Venkatalakshmi Kottapalli
Mid-level AI/ML Engineer specializing in LLMs, RAG pipelines, and MLOps
“LLM engineer/data analyst who built a production RAG QA assistant over the Jurafsky & Martin NLP textbook to reduce hallucinations and provide explainable, source-grounded answers. Experienced with LangChain/LangGraph orchestration, retrieval optimization (embeddings, vector DBs, caching), and rigorous evaluation/monitoring (Retrieval@K, A/B tests, telemetry/drift). Previously communicated analytics insights to non-technical stakeholders at GS Analytics using Power BI and simplified reporting.”
Taruni Reddy Ampojwala
Mid-level GenAI Engineer specializing in LLM agents and RAG systems
“Built and deployed a production RAG-based LLM assistant that answers day-to-day operational questions from internal PDFs/SOPs, with strong emphasis on data consistency (metadata versioning, confidence thresholds, conflict handling) and low-latency retrieval at scale. Experienced designing and orchestrating multi-agent LLM workflows (retrieval/validation/generation) and pipeline orchestration for ingestion/embedding/vector-store updates, plus iterative delivery with non-technical operations/business stakeholders.”
