“ML/AI engineer who built and productionized an NLP system at PurevisitX, orchestrating end-to-end ML workflows with Airflow (S3 ingestion through auto-retraining) and optimizing for drift and low-latency inference. Also partnered with Citibank risk teams on a fraud detection model, translating results via dashboards and iterating thresholds based on stakeholder feedback.”

“Product-focused full-stack engineer (Spring Boot/Django + React/TypeScript) with deep experience building multi-tenant, enterprise workflow and supply-chain/order-tracking systems. Owned an end-to-end Workflow SLA Breach Prediction & Alerting feature integrating Azure ML for a cloud workflow platform used by ~10,000 enterprise users, and has hands-on AWS operations experience resolving real production latency/scaling incidents via query optimization and Redis caching.”

“ML/MLOps practitioner from Discover Financial who built and deployed a real-time AI fraud detection platform (LSTM + VAE) on AWS SageMaker with Docker/FastAPI and Jenkins-driven CI/CD. Demonstrated measurable impact (30% accuracy lift, 25% fewer false alerts) and deep expertise in class-imbalance mitigation, drift monitoring, and orchestration (Airflow/Kubeflow), plus strong stakeholder adoption via Power BI dashboards for fraud/compliance teams.”

“Built and shipped a production agentic LLM analytics platform that lets non-SQL business users query relational databases in plain English via a RAG + LangChain/LangGraph workflow and FastAPI service. Emphasizes safety and reliability with guardrails (validation/access control), testing/evaluation frameworks, and performance optimization (caching, monitoring, Dockerized scalable deployment), reducing dependency on data teams and speeding analytics turnaround.”

Mid-level AI/Machine Learning Engineer specializing in Generative AI, NLP, and MLOps

Saint Louis, MO6y exp

“Built a production LLM/RAG document analysis system for large financial documents (credit reports/PDFs) to help business analysts extract insights faster. Implemented end-to-end pipeline orchestration with LangChain, vector search (e.g., FAISS), and hallucination controls (context grounding, similarity thresholds, and no-answer fallback), delivered as a Dockerized Python API.”

“Built and deployed a production LLM/RAG clinical document understanding and summarization system for healthcare, focused on reducing manual review time while meeting strict accuracy, latency, and compliance needs. Demonstrates strong MLOps/orchestration depth (Airflow, Kubernetes, Azure ML Pipelines) and a rigorous approach to hallucination mitigation through layered, source-grounded safeguards and stakeholder-driven requirements with physicians/compliance teams.”

“Built and deployed an enterprise RAG application at Centene to help clinical teams retrieve insights from large internal policy document sets, cutting manual research by 30–40%. Implemented custom domain-adapted embeddings (SageMaker + BERT transfer learning) and hybrid retrieval (BM25 + Pinecone) to drive a 22% relevance lift, and ran the system in production on AWS EKS with CI/CD, MLflow, and Prometheus monitoring (99% uptime, ~40% latency reduction).”

“Python backend engineer who owned an end-to-end Django/DRF authentication and account-management module (JWT, RBAC, email verification) and optimized token validation performance. Has hands-on Kubernetes + Helm delivery with GitOps via ArgoCD (multi-environment app-of-apps, drift detection/rollback) and has supported a cloud-to-on-prem migration using staged testing and phased cutover. Also built and scaled a Kafka-based real-time user activity tracking pipeline with reliability and backpressure controls.”

“Built Hexagon’s production Text-to-CAD Copilot that converts text and rough sketches into editable CAD code, combining GraphRAG (Neo4j/LangChain) with a Gemini-powered vision module and multi-agent geometric validation—cutting manual modeling from a day to ~45 seconds and driving retrieval latency below 50ms. Also has large-scale GCP data/ML orchestration experience (Airflow/Cloud Composer, Dataflow, Pub/Sub, Snowflake) processing 50M+ daily records with drift monitoring and automated reliability controls.”

“Data professional with ~4 years of experience, most recently at AIG (insurance), building ML/NLP systems for fraud detection and policy automation using transformers, CNNs, and clustering/anomaly detection. Also developed a RAG-based knowledge retrieval system, iterating across embedding models and moving to production based on precision and latency SLAs, then containerizing and deploying with SageMaker and CI/CD.”
