Vetted Data Engineers in the Bay Area

“Startup builder (MagicSeven) who designed and implemented a browser-based, agentic video editor end-to-end, including an AWS event-driven multimodal LLM “indexing” pipeline and an orchestration LLM agent for searching and manipulating footage. Demonstrates deep video file/codec knowledge plus practical production hardening of LLM workflows (format validation, plan/execute, S3-based state for debuggability).”

“Built and deployed a production LLM system that scraped Google Maps menu photos, extracted structured prices via OpenAI, and cross-validated them against website-scraped data to automate data-quality verification at scale (replacing costly manual contractor checks). Demonstrates strong reliability instincts—precision-first prompting, output gating with image-quality metadata, and fuzzy matching/RAG techniques—plus solid orchestration (Dagster/Airflow) and observability (Sentry, Prometheus/Grafana).”

“AI/ML engineer with production experience building a RAG-based internal analytics assistant (Databricks + ADF ingestion, Pinecone vector store, LangChain orchestration) deployed via Docker on AWS SageMaker with CI/CD and MLflow. Strong focus on real-world constraints—latency/cost optimization (LoRA ~60% compute reduction), hallucination control with citation grounding, and enterprise security/governance. Previously at Intuit, delivered an interpretable churn prediction system (PySpark/Databricks, Airflow/Azure ML) that improved retention targeting ~12%.”

“Python backend engineer who built a personal LLM-powered AI code review tool that parses code into context-preserving diff chunks and uses the OpenAI API to analyze and summarize changes. Has hands-on Kubernetes deployment experience (replicas, rolling updates, ConfigMaps/Secrets, health probes) and follows GitOps-style, declarative CI/CD workflows; also has experience designing streaming/event-style processing with attention to reliability and observability.”

“Solutions Engineer specializing in taking LLM copilots from demo to production, with a strong emphasis on enterprise security (RBAC/OAuth), grounded RAG behavior (cite-or-refuse), and operational readiness (eval loops, logging, runbooks). Experienced in real-time diagnosis of agentic/LLM workflow failures and in partnering with Sales/CS to run integration-first POCs that clear security and reliability concerns and accelerate rollout.”
