Vetted AI & Machine Learning Professionals in North Carolina

“Built and shipped a production LLM-powered decision system that replaced a slow, inconsistent manual review process by turning messy text into structured, auditable outputs behind an API. Demonstrates strong end-to-end ownership of reliability and operations (schema validation, retries/fallbacks, latency/cost controls, monitoring for drift) and a disciplined approach to evaluation and regression testing. Experienced collaborating with non-technical reviewers to define success criteria and deliver interpretable outputs that get adopted.”

“Internship at Discovery Education building a production LLM/RAG chatbot that let marketing and sales teams query and interpret Looker/BI dashboards in natural language, with responses grounded in compliance and state education standards. Emphasizes rigorous evaluation (faithfulness/precision/recall/latency) plus user-feedback analytics, and used LangChain for orchestration, chunking/context-window control, and integration with enterprise sources like SharePoint.”

“AI/ML engineer who has shipped production systems across computer vision and conversational agents: built a YOLOv8-based wheel fitment pipeline at a Techstars-backed automotive startup, focusing on sub-second latency, monitoring, and robust fallback mechanisms that drove 2–3x page view growth and +5–6k users. Also built a voice-based interview platform orchestrating Deepgram + GPT-4 Mini + OpenAI TTS with FSM-driven reliability, and has hands-on RAG experience (LangChain, hybrid retrieval, cross-encoder reranking, custom pseudo-query generation).”
