Vetted Machine Learning Engineers

“ML/backend engineer with PayPal experience building high-stakes production systems, including a GenAI internal support assistant and a real-time fraud scoring pipeline. Strong in Python/FastAPI, model-serving infrastructure, RAG architecture, and production observability, with clear readiness to transition those backend patterns into a TypeScript stack.”

“AI/ML engineer who has deployed production LLM/transformer-based systems for merchant intelligence and fraud/support optimization, delivering +27% merchant engagement and +18% payment success. Deep experience in privacy-preserving, PCI DSS-compliant data/ML pipelines (Airflow, AWS Glue, Spark, Delta Lake) and scalable microservices on Kubernetes, plus proven cross-functional delivery in healthcare claims analytics at UnitedHealth Group (12% HEDIS claim reduction).”

“Platform/infra engineer with strong ownership of Kubernetes on VMware and day-to-day hybrid on-prem-to-AWS operations. Has hands-on experience automating infrastructure delivery with Terraform/Ansible/CI-CD, and has resolved real production issues spanning CSI storage reattachment during upgrades, vSphere storage-latency performance degradation, and hybrid connectivity/routing failures with improved validation, monitoring, and failover.”

“Second most active contributor at Daice Labs, owning a production AI-powered software development collaboration platform’s end-to-end execution infrastructure (TypeScript/Next.js backend, Node.js CLI, shared libs). Built the full multi-agent pipeline (planning/codegen/summary), Supabase-backed context assembly and realtime state, Git/GitHub automation, and a provider-agnostic LLM abstraction with strict Zod validation and retries, backed by extensive tests and design specs.”

“ML/GenAI engineer with strong end-to-end production ownership across predictive ML, RAG systems, and LLM routing. They pair solid platform engineering skills with measurable business impact, including 15% churn reduction, 35% support ticket deflection, 45% GenAI cost savings, and a shared inference library that cut deployment time from weeks to days.”

“ML/AI engineer focused on production-grade model reliability: built a monitoring and validation framework to detect drift, trigger anomaly alerts/retraining, and maintain consistent performance for device intelligence workflows at scale. Strong MLOps background with Python pipelines, Docker/Kubernetes deployments, Airflow orchestration, and real-time monitoring dashboards; experienced partnering with product managers to deliver business-facing insights.”

“AI/ML engineer who has shipped both a safety-critical mental health RAG chatbot (Mistral 7B + Pinecone) with automated faithfulness/toxicity monitoring and a deep Q-learning investment recommendation engine at Lincoln Financial Group. Strong in production MLOps and orchestration (AWS Lambda/CloudWatch/SageMaker, Docker, AKS) and in translating regulated-domain requirements (clinical reliability, fiduciary duty) into measurable model constraints and monitoring.”

“Built and shipped a production multi-agent, voice-based conversational assistant for older adults’ daily health management using Vertex AI, FastAPI, Firebase/Firestore, and Cloud Run, with a custom cross-session memory design to keep responses context-aware at low latency. Also partnered with caregivers/elderly users and health officials, translating needs into workflows and explaining HIV risk predictions with SHAP and dashboards.”

Senior AI Engineer specializing in LLMs, RAG, and multimodal NLP

Austin, TX5y exp

“Built a production LLM/RAG assistant for insurance/health claims agents that ingests 100–200 page patient PDFs via OCR (migrated from local Tesseract to Azure Document Intelligence) and delivers grounded claim detail retrieval plus summaries with PII/PHI guardrails. Experienced orchestrating large workflows with Celery worker pipelines and AWS Step Functions (S3-triggered, Fargate-based batch inference/accuracy aggregation), and collaborates closely with non-technical SMEs (claims agents/nurses) through shadowing, iterative demos, and SME-defined evaluation.”

“Robotics/computer-vision engineer with industrial safety monitoring experience, building real-time pose estimation (TRTPose) and 2D-to-3D localization and optimizing pipelines to sustain 30+ FPS under heavy multi-entity load. Also brings edge-to-cloud distributed systems work (HoloLens + Google Vision/Translation) and production ML deployment experience using Docker/CI/CD across finance and edge camera environments.”

“Backend-focused engineer with hands-on experience modernizing a legacy SNMP/PNM data collection system at CableLabs into a cloud-accessible Kubernetes pipeline, feeding Prometheus-formatted metrics into VictoriaMetrics and visualizing real-time network health in Grafana for 100+ modems. Also built a FastAPI + Supabase appointment booking portal for a clinic with encryption and phone-number-based auth, and has frontend experience debugging S3-based HEIF image rendering issues.”

Senior Machine Learning Engineer specializing in computer vision and LLM-powered analytics

Santa Barbara, CA7y exp

“Machine learning engineer and startup veteran building InfraSketch (infrasketch.net), a full-stack system-design/diagramming product where users describe systems in plain English and an LLM agent generates and iterates on infrastructure graphs and exports design docs. Owns the entire stack (React/TS + FastAPI/Node, DynamoDB/Postgres, AWS serverless) and focuses on LLM consistency, modular agent architecture, and production-style CI/CD and reliability patterns.”

“ML/GenAI engineer with hands-on experience shipping LLM-powered support systems at Uber, including real-time feedback analysis, ticket summarization, and retrieval-grounded knowledge systems. Stands out for combining fine-tuning, RAG, safety evaluation, and production optimization to drive measurable support outcomes like faster handling times, better resolution rates, and lower latency/cost.”
