Vetted Data & Analytics Professionals in the Bay Area

“Data/Backend engineer with experience at Naukri building large-scale analytics products over a 130M+ user base, including Spark/Airflow pipelines and Kafka-based clickstream validation with Confluent Schema Registry. Also built an audience segmentation backend (Athena/S3 + Spring Boot APIs) for non-technical internal teams and recently shipped a GenAI customer data audit system (FastAPI/Postgres/Llama) that cut sales-planning validation from ~3 months to ~1 week.”

“ML/NLP practitioner working across healthcare and business/finance use cases: currently fine-tuning a domain-specific Llama 3.1 model for safe reasoning over EHRs/clinical notes using RAG + RL/DPO and RAGAS-based evaluation. Has built UMLS-driven entity normalization pipelines with quantified quality gains and developed embedding/vector-DB systems (FAISS) for semantic matching and forecasting/recommendation applications at Aurora AI and Banxico.”

“Built and shipped LLM/OCR/NLP-driven document-intelligence workflows in operational environments (EnvoyX and UPS), emphasizing production readiness via explicit state-machine orchestration, confidence gates, and human-in-the-loop review. Demonstrated strong business impact in customs brokerage/document ingestion: 50% fewer customs rejects, 30% higher throughput, SLA adherence improved from 71% to 96%, and platform reliability reaching 99.6% with 78% fewer bad-data incidents.”

Junior Full-Stack & Data Scientist specializing in ML/NLP and analytics products

Redwood City, CA2y exp

“Built and deployed profitprops.io, a sports betting player-props prediction product using ML/AI. Implemented backend APIs with FastAPI/Express.js and Supabase, trained models on AWS GPU (P3) using Docker + RAPIDS, and set up CI/CD with GitHub Actions while working around cost constraints and data-collection hurdles (EC2 proxy rotation/rate limits).”

Intern Data Scientist specializing in computer vision and LLM agents

Sunnyvale, CA0y exp

“Software engineering candidate with hands-on experience building and shipping LLM agents: created a production AI enrichment/coding agent at Covalent Metrology using Apollo.io + OpenAI, and built a Mistral hackathon router that dynamically selects among models to reduce token cost while maintaining quality. Also developed a real-time financial margin analysis agent that emails actionable insights and iterated on reliability issues (e.g., fixing misrouted emails, improving news relevance filtering).”

“Analytics candidate with hands-on experience in both fraud and churn use cases, including SQL-based preparation of 6.5M transaction records and reproducible Python modeling workflows. Stands out for combining technical rigor in data quality, feature engineering, and imbalance handling with strong stakeholder alignment, metric definition, and dashboard adoption.”

“Data-engineering-oriented candidate with hands-on experience building an agentic AI product and operational automation workflows. They described automating inventory-to-ERP discrepancy reconciliation with anomaly detection and daily reporting, and also have practical scraping/automation experience dealing with Cloudflare-protected sites using Selenium and Puppeteer.”

Junior AI & ML Engineer specializing in agentic systems and full-stack AI products

San Francisco, CA2y exp

“Won a machine learning contest and was placed onto a Kaiser data science team, where they built ML models for hospital bottleneck prediction and resource allocation. They later built and deployed a full-stack LLM-based “data analyst agent” (with custom orchestration plus LangChain/OpenAI Agents experience) that generates analysis code, answers questions, and produces dashboards from uploaded datasets, emphasizing rigorous evaluation sets, robustness, and healthcare security/compliance integration.”
