“GenAI/ML engineer who has shipped production agentic systems in highly regulated and high-throughput environments, including an AWS Bedrock-based fraud/compliance workflow at U.S. Bank with PII redaction and hallucination detection that cut investigation time by 50%+. Also built and evaluated RAG and recommendation systems at Target, using RAGAS-driven testing, hybrid retrieval with re-ranking, and SHAP explainability dashboards to align model behavior with merchandising business KPIs.”

“Built and shipped a production LLM-powered internal operations automation platform using LangChain RAG (Pinecone) and FastAPI microservices, deployed on AWS EKS, serving 10k+ daily interactions. Implemented a rigorous evaluation/observability stack (golden datasets, prompt regression tests, MLflow, retrieval metrics, hallucination monitoring) that drove hallucinations below 2% and improved reliability, and partnered closely with non-technical ops leaders to cut manual lookup work by 60%+.”

“Built a production internal LLM-powered knowledge assistant using a RAG architecture (Python, LLM APIs, cloud services) that answers employee questions with sourced, grounded responses from internal documents. Demonstrates strong practical depth in retrieval tuning (chunking/metadata filters), orchestration with LangChain, and production reliability practices (latency optimization, automated embedding refresh, evaluation metrics, logging/monitoring) while partnering closely with non-technical operations teams.”
