“AI/ML engineer who built a production RAG-based internal document intelligence assistant (LangChain + Pinecone) to let employees query enterprise reports in natural language. Demonstrated hands-on pipeline orchestration with Apache Airflow and tackled real production issues like retrieval grounding and latency using tuning, caching, and token optimization, while partnering closely with non-technical business stakeholders through iterative demos.”

“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 focused on building reliable, production-grade pipelines and external data collection systems on AWS (S3/Lambda/SQS/Glue/EMR) using PySpark/SQL, serving curated datasets to Snowflake/Redshift for finance and fraud teams. Has operated a large-scale crawler ingesting millions of records/day with anti-bot tactics, schema versioning/quarantine, and CloudWatch/Datadog monitoring, and also shipped a versioned REST API with caching and query optimization.”

“Data/ML platform engineer with healthcare (Cigna) experience owning an end-to-end pipeline spanning Airflow + Debezium CDC ingestion, PySpark/SQL transformations, rigorous data quality gates, and feature-store/API serving for ML training and inference. Worked at 10+ TB scale and cites a ~30% latency reduction plus stronger reliability via idempotent design, monitoring, and backfill-safe reprocessing; also built pragmatic early-stage data pipelines at Frankenbuild Ventures.”
