Pavithra Kollu
Mid-level Machine Learning Engineer specializing in LLMs, RAG, and search systems
“Backend/ML infrastructure engineer with experience at Perplexity and Meta building production evaluation, monitoring, and retrieval systems for AI search, autonomous agents, and LLM-powered workflows. Particularly strong in turning messy manual quality-review processes into reusable Python/FastAPI automation with measurable impact, including major gains in search relevance, latency, and grounded answer quality.”
Harish Kasu
Mid-level AI/ML Engineer specializing in Generative AI, RAG, and MLOps
“AI/LLM engineer with production experience at NVIDIA and Microsoft, including building a RAG-based enterprise knowledge assistant that improved accuracy by 42% and scaled to thousands of queries. Deep in inference optimization (TensorRT-LLM, Triton, quantization, speculative decoding) and MLOps/observability (Prometheus/Grafana, MLflow, LangSmith), plus orchestration with Kubeflow/Airflow across multi-cloud.”
Vinay Ramrupe
Mid-level AI/ML Engineer specializing in LLM and enterprise generative AI
“ML/AI engineer focused on taking LLM systems from experimentation to reliable production, including enterprise copilot and RAG-based knowledge retrieval use cases. Stands out for combining data pipelines, model training, inference optimization, automated evaluation, and safety guardrails, with cited impact including 20% throughput gains and 30% less manual evaluation effort.”
