Intern Data Analyst specializing in data pipelines and LLM/RAG applications

San Francisco, CA1y exp

“Built and deployed LLM-powered analytics and reporting systems, including a RAG-based assistant over Snowflake that let business users ask questions in plain English instead of writing SQL. Experienced orchestrating LLM agents (LangChain) and serverless reporting pipelines (AWS Lambda/S3/RDS), with a strong focus on grounded outputs, monitoring/evaluation, and data quality—used daily by non-technical finance and operations teams at Cigna.”

“Analytics candidate with hands-on experience improving enterprise reporting and operational decision-making at Reliance and Wendy’s. They combine SQL optimization, Python automation, sentiment analysis, and dashboarding to deliver measurable impact, including cutting report runtimes from 3 minutes to 1 minute, improving model accuracy from 70% to 80%, and reducing supplier past dues by 30%.”

Mid-level Data Engineer specializing in cloud data platforms and AI agents

Santa Clara, CA6y exp

“Data/Backend engineer who has owned end-to-end merchant analytics systems on AWS: orchestrated multi-source ingestion (FISERV/Shopify/Clover) with Step Functions/Lambda, enforced strong data quality gates, and served curated datasets via Redshift and a FastAPI layer. Also built an early-stage Merchant Insights AI agent that converts natural language questions into SQL using OpenAI models, with full CI/CD and observability.”

“LLM/agentic systems builder who shipped production workflows at Angel Flight West and Eureka AI, combining LangGraph + RAG (Postgres/pgvector) with strong observability (LangSmith/Langfuse). Delivered large operational gains (address lookup cut from 10 minutes to 60 seconds; accuracy to 92%) and has a track record of quickly stabilizing customer-critical pipelines (Pydantic-enforced JSON for ETL) while partnering with sales/ops to drive adoption.”
