Washington, DC6y exp

“AI/ML engineer with impactful work for the World Bank across both LLM systems and computer vision, including a PRAI evaluator-assistance platform and a production UNet model for slum detection from multispectral satellite imagery. Earlier built multilingual NLP-based borrower segmentation and credit scoring at Creditmate through its acquisition by Paytm, showing strong experience in ambiguous, high-impact environments.”

“Full-stack engineer with strong AI systems and B2B SaaS experience across BrightOps, Zapier, Nordstrom, and Calendly. They’ve owned architecture for an AI-powered tutoring platform, improved retrieval quality with a hybrid vector-plus-keyword approach, and built Go services processing over 1 million student events per day. Particularly compelling for teams building data-intensive, reliability-critical products with LLM, workflow automation, or compliance-oriented use cases.”

“Data engineer/backend developer with experience owning end-to-end, high-volume data pipelines for ML/analytics using Python, Airflow, SQL, and PySpark, reporting ~30% error reduction through improved reliability and data quality checks. Has also built Django-based REST APIs with caching/pagination and strong versioning practices, and operated external data collection/web scraping pipelines with anti-bot measures, monitoring, retries, and idempotent backfills.”

“Built and shipped customer-facing AI systems in banking, including an AI fraud support workflow and virtual assistant at Citi/Citibank that handled over 1 million conversations per month. Combines full-stack engineering, LLM/RAG architecture, and strong compliance-minded design with PII masking, audit logging, confidence thresholds, and human escalation for regulated environments.”

“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%.”

“Backend/data engineer with production experience building credit/fraud enrichment services and checkout pipelines on AWS (EKS + Lambda) using FastAPI, Kafka, Postgres, and Redis, with a strong focus on reliability patterns (timeouts/retries/circuit breakers) and observability. Has also built AWS Glue/PySpark ETL into S3/Redshift with schema evolution and data quality controls, and modernized legacy credit decisioning into Java/Node microservices with parallel-run parity validation and feature-flag rollouts.”

“Robotics/computer-vision engineer with industrial safety monitoring experience, building real-time pose estimation (TRTPose) and 2D-to-3D localization and optimizing pipelines to sustain 30+ FPS under heavy multi-entity load.
