Vetted Education Professionals

“Research Assistant at the University of Houston who built and live-deployed a production RAG system for 1000+ research documents, using hybrid retrieval (dense+BM25+RRF) with cross-encoder reranking and RAGAS-based evaluation; reported 66% MRR, 0.85+ faithfulness, and 68% lower LLM inference costs. Also built a deployed LangGraph multi-agent research system (Researcher/Critic/Writer) with tool integrations (Tavily, arXiv) and dual memory (ChromaDB + Neo4j), plus freelance automation work delivering a WhatsApp chatbot and n8n workflows for a wholesale clothing business.”

“Product-minded full-stack engineer from CouponDunia who owned end-to-end notification and recommendation services at million-user scale. Built internal admin/analytics and operations dashboards in React/TypeScript with typed contracts and scalable Node.js REST APIs, and has deep microservices experience with Kafka/RabbitMQ (idempotency, retries/DLQs, partitioning, consumer tuning, and observability).”

“Built and evolved a geospatial ETL + API platform that processes pixel-wise satellite imagery in PostgreSQL/PostGIS into low-latency farm-level time-series metrics for an interactive dashboard, using precomputed hotspot analysis to reduce latency by 75–80%. Experienced in FastAPI-style API contract design (OpenAPI), caching, server-side filtering/compression, and production-minded security patterns (RBAC, session-derived authorization, password hashing) with disciplined rollback/versioning practices.”

“Early-career engineer from BNP Paribas who drove a large-scale observability modernization—selecting and implementing Prometheus/Grafana for a 2000+ server estate, then productionizing it on Kubernetes via Docker/Jenkins. Known for hands-on demos, strong documentation/templates, and pragmatic troubleshooting (including custom Python metrics) that improved visibility and cut debugging time by ~60%.”

“Backend Python engineer who owned an AI-driven healthcare staffing matching service, rebuilding the model inference/data pipeline to eliminate blocking bottlenecks and cutting API latency by ~33%. Experienced running Python services on Kubernetes with GitOps/ArgoCD, and has executed a cloud-to-on-prem rollout under tight resource and tooling constraints while also building event-driven streaming updates via a message broker.”

“Robotics engineer who built an autonomous driving mobile robot software stack at Boston University using ROS on an NVIDIA Jetson Nano, integrating LiDAR + stereo vision with YOLOv5 and a probabilistic occupancy grid for planning. Demonstrated real-time systems rigor (multi-rate ROS nodes, 50ms sync, profiling/instrumentation) and optimized YOLOv5 with TensorRT, citing ~30% accuracy improvement; also taught ROS workshops to 50+ students.”

“Computer-vision practitioner and educator who built a real-time license plate recognition system (OpenCV/Python + KNN) optimized to run on a Raspberry Pi with camera integration. Also designs hands-on deep learning coursework, incorporating recent transformer-based vision research (Vision Transformers) into practical labs on real datasets.”
