Vetted Apache Airflow Professionals

“Backend-focused engineer with deep Java/Spring expertise in fintech and SaaS integrations, including high-scale financial data pipelines and partner-facing APIs. Most notably re-platformed a 100M+ record ETL system to a custom concurrent Spring Batch architecture that cut failures dramatically and reduced infrastructure costs by over 90%, while also leading enterprise-grade event-driven integrations for customers like Bosch and Amazon.”

“Full-stack engineer with end-to-end ownership across React/TypeScript frontends, Spring Boot/Node microservices, and production ops on Docker/Kubernetes and AWS (ECS/CloudWatch). Built real-time healthcare eligibility and analytics systems at Cigna and an early-stage seller onboarding platform at Flipkart, driving measurable performance gains (35–40% latency/throughput improvements) through event-driven Kafka pipelines, Redis caching, and strong reliability/observability practices.”

“LLM/agentic workflow builder focused on productionizing document-processing systems. Redesigned pipelines with LangGraph + RAG, schema-aware validation, and eval/monitoring loops; known for fast incident diagnosis (restored accuracy from ~70% to >95% same day). Partners closely with sales and stakeholders to deliver tailored demos and drive adoption (reported +40%).”

“LLM/agent workflow engineer with healthcare experience (CVS/CBS Health) who built and deployed a production call-insights platform using Azure OpenAI + LangChain/LangGraph, including sentiment and compliance checks. Demonstrates deep HIPAA/PHI handling (tenant-contained processing, redaction, RBAC/encryption/audit logging) and production rigor (testing, eval sets, validation/retries, autoscaling) to scale to thousands of transcripts.”

“Built and deployed a production Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) platform in a healthcare setting to automate clinical documentation review and summarization, targeting near-real-time, explainable outputs. Emphasizes grounded generation to reduce hallucinations, latency optimizations (chunking/embedding reuse), and PHI-safe workflows with access controls, plus strong orchestration experience using Apache Airflow.”

“Built and productionized a telecom-focused RAG assistant by LoRA fine-tuning LLaMA-2 and integrating LangChain+FAISS behind a FastAPI service, with dashboards and a human feedback UI for engineers. Demonstrated measurable impact (≈40% faster document lookup, +8–10% retrieval precision) and strong MLOps rigor via Airflow orchestration, CI/CD, and monitoring for drift and failures.”

“Built a production GenAI-powered analytics assistant to reduce reliance on data analysts by enabling natural-language Q&A over Databricks/Power BI dashboards, backed by vector search (Pinecone/Milvus) and a Neo4j knowledge graph, including multimodal support via OpenAI Vision. Demonstrates strong real-world LLM reliability engineering with strict RAG, LangGraph multi-step verification, and Guardrails/custom validators, plus broad orchestration and production monitoring experience (Airflow, ADF, Step Functions, Kubernetes, Prometheus/CloudWatch).”

“ML/NLP engineer currently working in NYC on a system that connects complex unstructured data sources to deliver personalized insights, using embeddings + vector DB retrieval and a RAG architecture (LangChain, Pinecone/OpenSearch). Strong focus on production constraints—especially low-latency retrieval—using FAISS/ANN, PCA, index partitioning, and Redis caching, plus PEFT fine-tuning (LoRA/QLoRA) and KPI/SLA-driven promotion to production.”

“Built a production RAG-based GenAI copilot backend at Aetna using Python/FastAPI, GPT-4, LangChain, and Azure AI Search, deployed on AKS with Prometheus/Grafana observability. Owned the system end-to-end (ingestion through deployment) and improved peak-time reliability by addressing vector search and embedding bottlenecks with Redis caching, index optimization, and async processing, plus added anti-hallucination guardrails via retrieval confidence thresholds.”

“LLM engineer who built a production seller-support RAG system at eBay using hybrid retrieval (BM25 + Pinecone vectors) with Cohere reranking, LangGraph orchestration, and citation-grounded answers. Strong focus on reliability: semantic/structure-aware chunking, automated Ragas-based evaluation with nightly regressions, and production observability (LangSmith) plus drift monitoring (Arize). Also implemented a multi-agent fraud pipeline with AutoGen using JSON-schema contracts and explicit termination conditions.”

“LLM/agent engineer who shipped a production RAG-based recommendation + explanation system that replaced a traditional recommender stack, delivering ~20% CTR lift (and +8% after a reliability iteration) with strong cold-start performance. Demonstrates strong production rigor: schema-constrained generation, typed tool calling, explicit state/orchestration, deep monitoring/feedback loops, and safe integration with messy ERP inventory/order data using normalization, idempotency, and conflict-resolution guardrails.”

“Built and shipped LLM/OCR/NLP-driven document-intelligence workflows in operational environments (EnvoyX and UPS), emphasizing production readiness via explicit state-machine orchestration, confidence gates, and human-in-the-loop review. Demonstrated strong business impact in customs brokerage/document ingestion: 50% fewer customs rejects, 30% higher throughput, SLA adherence improved from 71% to 96%, and platform reliability reaching 99.6% with 78% fewer bad-data incidents.”

“Full-stack engineer who built an enterprise search platform (Codlens) delivering natural-language Q&A over Jira/Slack using embeddings, vector DB search, re-ranking (RRF), and LLM responses with source grounding. Also designed and benchmarked a distributed IAM system with Postgres transaction-log replication and Raft-based quorum consistency, reporting ~253 TPS at ~60ms latency in a multi-node setup. Experience spans early-stage startups (Zetic AI, Sagwara Capital) and large-scale orgs (Akamai, Atlassian).”

Jersey City, NJ4y exp

“Backend engineer focused on Python/FastAPI microservices running on Kubernetes (AWS EKS) with strong GitOps/CI/CD ownership (GitHub Actions + ArgoCD). Demonstrated measurable performance wins (p95 latency cut from >1s to <200ms) and production reliability work across Kafka/Redis streaming and cloud-to-on-prem migrations (RDS/S3 to Postgres/MinIO) using parallel validation and checksum-based consistency checks.”
