Intern AI/ML Engineer specializing in GenAI, LLMs, and agentic RAG systems

Miami, FL2y exp

“AI/LLM practitioner who built a GPT-2-like language model from scratch at the University of Maryland using PyTorch and multi-GPU distributed training, with experiment tracking in Weights & Biases. As an AI Operations intern at ScaleUp360, delivered multiple production-style AI agent automations (Gmail classification and Fireflies-to-Claude workflows that extract and assign CEO tasks) and set up measurable evaluation using test cases and classification metrics.”

“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.”

Mid-Level Software Engineer specializing in distributed backend systems and cloud-native microservices

Seattle, WA5y exp

“Software engineer focused on data platforms and applied LLM systems: built an internal data quality monitoring layer to catch silent data drift and iterated post-launch after finding ~30% false-positive alerts, reducing noise via dynamic baselines and improved structured logging. Also shipped a production RAG-based internal knowledge assistant over Jira/Confluence with citations, confidence-based fallbacks, and nightly automated evals to prevent regressions.”

Junior Full-Stack Developer specializing in Java microservices and cloud platforms

Overland Park, KS2y exp

“Full-stack engineer (~2.6 years) with strong Java/Spring Boot backend experience and React/Angular frontend exposure, who has worked on enterprise-scale systems at Dell processing ~1.8M daily transactions/events. Built secure, partner/internal-facing APIs (OAuth2/JWT) across 14 integrations and implemented Kafka-based order/payment workflows with idempotency and sub-700ms processing targets, plus CI/CD and Selenium-based release validation.”

“Backend/full-stack engineer (5+ years) with Shopify experience integrating LLM/RAG workflows into production APIs. Owned a Python TensorFlow Serving inference pipeline connected to Java microservices via gRPC, optimizing tail latency at ~10k concurrent load and improving retrieval relevance with embedding and evaluation work. Strong Kubernetes/EKS + GitOps/CI/CD background, including monolith-to-microservices migrations and event-driven streaming patterns.”

“ML/AI engineer with hands-on ownership of production document intelligence and GenAI systems, spanning model experimentation, AWS deployment, monitoring, and iterative optimization. Stands out for turning document-heavy workflows into reliable, near real-time products with measurable gains in accuracy, latency, and manual-effort reduction, while also shipping citation-grounded RAG features that drove user trust and adoption.”

“Backend/data engineer from ASML who modernized a legacy SAS-based statistical processing system into a cloud-native AWS platform (Lambda/FastAPI, Step Functions/EventBridge, Glue, S3/RDS) with strong reliability and data-quality practices. Demonstrated measurable performance wins (RDS query reduced from 90+ seconds to <5 seconds) and hands-on incident ownership for production ETL pipelines.”

“Backend/data engineer with hands-on production experience across Python/FastAPI services and AWS (Lambda, API Gateway, SQS, ECS) delivered via Terraform and GitHub Actions. Built Glue-to-Redshift ETL pipelines with Step Functions retry/catch patterns, schema evolution safeguards, and data quality checks; also modernized a legacy SAS monthly reporting system into Python microservices with rigorous side-by-side parity validation. Demonstrated strong SQL tuning skills with a reported improvement from 5 minutes to 15 seconds.”

“Product-minded software engineer with experience shipping AI-powered financial insights (spend forecasting, cashflow, credit optimization) and building real-time analytics systems using React/TypeScript and FastAPI. Has designed microservices with RabbitMQ/gRPC and strong observability (Prometheus/Grafana/OpenTelemetry), and also built an internal Figma plugin adopted by designers that reduced export time by 50%.”

“Financial systems engineer who built an automated rebalance-day order reporting and analytics tool on kdb+ pipelines, cutting a high-visibility manual process from 2–3 hours to ~2 minutes and expanding it from North America to EMEA/APAC. Also proposed an early production RAG-based incident knowledge assistant trained on ServiceNow postmortems, with guardrails to scope retrieval by application.”

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.”
