Currently pursuing a master’s degree and targeting a $150k base salary.”

“Data engineer/backend data services practitioner with Bank of America experience building real-time and batch transaction-monitoring pipelines and APIs (Kafka + databases, REST/GraphQL). Highlights include a reported 45% response-time improvement through performance optimizations and use of Delta Lake schema evolution plus CI/CD (GitHub Actions/Jenkins) and operational reliability patterns like CloudWatch monitoring and dead-letter queues.”

“Data engineer at AT&T focused on large-scale telecom (5G/IoT) data platforms, owning end-to-end pipelines from Kafka/Azure ingestion through Databricks/Delta Lake transformations to serving analytics and ML. Has operated at very high volumes (~50+ TB/day) and delivered measurable performance gains (25–30% faster processing) plus improved reliability via Airflow monitoring, robust data quality checks, and resilient external data collection patterns (rate limiting, retries, dynamic schemas).”

“Built and productionized LLM-driven content intelligence/SEO agents for a high-traffic media platform, automating tagging/summarization/metadata with FastAPI + async orchestration and strict JSON-schema outputs. Demonstrated measurable impact (40% faster publishing, +20% organic traffic in 3 months) and strong reliability practices (offline evals, shadow mode, canaries, fallbacks, idempotency, and monitoring).”

“Built and shipped a production LLM-powered agent that automated purchasing and inventory operations by integrating with live ERP data and returning structured, machine-readable outputs usable by downstream systems. Emphasizes real-world reliability through orchestration, strict schemas/validation, confidence-based fallbacks with human handoff, and monitoring/evaluation feedback loops to reduce silent failures and make issues observable.”

“Built and deployed an LLM-powered customer support assistant (“Notable Assistant”) focused on automating common post-customer queries while maintaining multi-turn context and meeting scalability/latency needs.
