Vetted AI & Machine Learning Professionals in Remote

“Built an AI lending assistant (RAG + DeBERTa) used by credit analysts to retrieve policies and past loan decisions, tackling real production issues like hallucinations, document quality, and sub-second latency. Deployed a modular, Dockerized AWS architecture (ECS/EMR + load balancer) with load testing, caching/precomputed embeddings, and CloudWatch monitoring, and used Airflow to automate scheduled data/embedding/vector DB refresh pipelines with retries and alerts.”

“Built and deployed an end-to-end product that brings a research-paper approach into production for large-scale time-series clustering, with attention to partitioning, latency, and scalability. Also designed a Python-based backend validation service (comparing outputs to database ground truths) and handled production reliability issues by reproducing dataset-specific crashes and hardening corner-case behavior with client-friendly errors.”

“Backend/platform engineer who owned an AI-powered resume optimization service end-to-end (FastAPI + Celery + Redis/Postgres) and optimized it for unpredictable LLM task latency. Strong Kubernetes/GitOps practitioner (Helm, autoscaling, probes, ArgoCD rollbacks) with experience in on-prem-to-cloud migrations using Terraform and CDC-based replication, plus real-time Kafka pipelines monitored via Prometheus/Grafana.”

“Built production LLM tooling focused on reproducibility and verification by enforcing JSON schemas and using multi-step checks with tools like Firecrawl and Perplexity. Also implemented the containerized infrastructure layer for a 9-agent app on K3s, dealing with rolling updates and uptime, and has experience advising a non-technical builder on search grounding and LLM data-flow design.”

“Built a production "appeals co-pilot" for a healthcare claims appeals team, combining an XGBoost/logistic ranking model with a Python/LangChain RAG stack (FAISS + Mistral 7B) to surface high-probability appeal wins and speed policy-grounded drafting. Emphasizes reliability and trust: hybrid retrieval with metadata routing, citation/eval scripts, guardrails, and an explainability layer that non-technical stakeholders could understand and override.”

“AI Engineering Intern at The Etherloop building the backend for a healthcare lifestyle recommendation app, including a multi-agent RAG-based system that uses curated SME data plus web search to generate personalized supplement recommendations from user lifestyle details and blood biomarkers. Evaluates against 500+ SME ground-truth profiles with ranking metrics and focuses on HIPAA-aligned deployment, privacy/security, and guardrails to reduce hallucinations and unsafe outputs.”

“ML engineer/data scientist who built and deployed a real-time fraud detection platform at Citi on AWS SageMaker, processing 3M+ daily transactions and improving fraud response by 28%. Combines unsupervised anomaly detection (autoencoders) with ensemble models (XGBoost/Random Forest) plus Airflow/Step Functions orchestration, drift monitoring, and explainability (SHAP) to keep models reliable and compliant in production.”

“Production-focused applied ML/LLM engineer who has deployed an LLM-powered RAG assistant and improved reliability through rigorous retrieval evaluation (recall/MRR), reranking, and guardrails that prevent confident wrong answers. Experienced running containerized ML/LLM services on Kubernetes (including AWS-managed layers) with CI/CD and observability, and has delivered a real-time predictive maintenance system using streaming sensor data and time-series anomaly detection in close partnership with maintenance teams.”

“AI/LLM engineer at Humana who built and deployed a HIPAA-aware RAG system for clinical record retrieval, cutting search time dramatically and improving retrieval efficiency by 30%. Experienced with Spark-scale data preprocessing, QLoRA fine-tuning, LangChain orchestration, and MLflow+SageMaker integration, with a strong testing/evaluation discipline (A/B tests, human eval) to hit 95%+ accuracy and production latency targets.”

“Backend engineer with health-tech AI platform experience who designed a modular FastAPI/PostgreSQL architecture supporting real-time user data and swap-in AI workflows. Has hands-on production experience with observability (CloudWatch, structured logging, LangSmith/LangGraph/LangChain tracing), secure auth (OAuth2/JWT, RBAC, RLS), and careful data-pipeline migrations using parallel runs and rollback planning.”

“AI Automation Engineer at BalancedTrust who single-handedly shipped production LLM features for FinTech compliance: a policy gap-analysis pipeline (SOC 2/GDPR) and a RAG-based regulatory chatbot. Deeply focused on reliability in high-stakes legal/compliance settings, with strong production engineering (edge functions, parallelized batching to cut latency, structured JSON outputs, guardrails, and monitoring) and close collaboration with non-technical compliance experts.”

“AI/ML engineer (Merkle) with hands-on experience deploying RAG-based LLM applications and real-time recommendation engines into production. Strong in cloud/on-prem architectures, GPU autoscaling, caching, and network optimization—delivered measurable latency reductions (40–70%) and improved retrieval relevance by systematically benchmarking chunking/embedding configurations and validating pipelines via CI/CD.”
