Vetted Apache Hadoop Professionals

“AI/ML manager who has deployed production NLP in healthcare—mining unstructured clinical notes and combining them with structured patient data to predict readmissions, with strong emphasis on data alignment and terminology normalization. Also experienced operationalizing ML with Airflow/MLflow and AWS Step Functions/SageMaker, plus stakeholder-facing Power BI dashboards (e.g., marketing customer segmentation).”

“AI Engineer with production experience building an LLM-powered conversational scheduling assistant (rules-based + OpenAI GPT agents) and improving responsiveness by ~40% through architecture optimization. Strong in orchestration (Airflow), containerized deployments, and data quality (Great Expectations/PySpark), with prior work automating population health reporting pipelines (Azure Data Factory → Snowflake) and delivering insights via Tableau to non-technical stakeholders.”

New York, NY1y exp

“Full-stack engineer who builds and scales customer-facing and internal AI products end-to-end (React/TypeScript/FastAPI/MongoDB) with strong product instrumentation and rapid MVP iteration. Built an AI-powered code review assistant adopted across teams and integrated into CI/CD, reducing manual review time by 30%+, and has hands-on experience with LLM retrieval/reasoning systems (LangChain + FAISS) and microservices scaling using RabbitMQ, Docker, and AWS.”

“AI/ML engineer with hands-on experience building a healthcare-focused generative AI application end-to-end, from architecture and data design through deployment, monitoring, and iterative improvement. Particularly strong in multi-agent LLM systems, fine-tuning, and safety guardrails, with measurable impact including a 20% accuracy lift to 91% and 10% latency improvement in a nutrition recommendation pipeline.”

Fairfax, VA6y exp

“Built and helped deploy a production RAG-based LLM assistant for HVAC anomaly diagnostics, partnering closely with field engineers and operations teams to make AI outputs trustworthy in real workflows. Stands out for practical post-launch optimization work—improving retrieval quality, reducing hallucinations, and stabilizing non-deterministic behavior—which contributed to roughly a 40% reduction in diagnosis time.”

“Software engineer with startup experience building finance ERP features across invoices, billing, tax updates, and bank reconciliation, now pivoting toward AI/ML through an ML internship and hands-on NLP projects. Brings a mix of full-stack product exposure, early-stage comfort, and practical experimentation with BERTopic, HDBSCAN, LangChain, MongoDB vector search, and sentiment modeling.”

“Research assistant who single-handedly built and integrated an indoor autonomous wheelchair system using NVIDIA Jetson Nano, LiDAR, and a stereo camera. Implemented a multi-sensor perception pipeline (OpenCV/PCL) with ROS-based modular nodes, TF frame management, and robust debugging via RViz/rosbag, plus simulation testing in Gazebo and Dockerized environments for portability.”

“Built a production "Mini RAG Assistant" for internal document Q&A, focusing on grounded answers (anti-hallucination), retrieval quality, and latency/cost optimization. Uses LangChain/LangGraph for orchestration and applies a metrics-driven evaluation loop (including reranking and semantic chunking improvements) while collaborating closely with product stakeholders.”

“LLM/RAG-focused engineer who repeatedly takes agentic workflows from impressive demos to dependable production using rigorous evals, SLOs, and deep observability. Has led high-impact incident mitigation (22-minute MTTR during a major sale) and developer enablement workshops, and partnered with sales to close a $410k ARR enterprise deal with a tailored RAG pilot (FastAPI/pgvector/Okta/InfoSec-ready).”

“Backend-focused TypeScript/Node.js engineer who owned a production microservice for transactional workflows in a React + microservices platform, integrating REST and Kafka event processing. Emphasizes operability and correctness (idempotency keys, exponential backoff retries, DLQs, centralized logging/metrics/alerts) plus strong API DX via versioning and Swagger/OpenAPI with improved error contracts based on developer feedback.”

“Engineering leader/player-coach who redesigned A/B testing and observability infrastructure for real-time audio/video features at 90M+ DAU scale, using Kafka-based ingestion and horizontally scalable aggregation for near real-time metrics. Managed 10–15 engineers, drove >20% infrastructure cost reduction without user-experience regressions, and led major peak-traffic incident response with lasting reliability improvements (load testing, capacity planning, alerting, pre-mortems).”
