Vetted BERT Professionals

“Backend engineer who built and owned an AI-powered SMS survey platform for a nonprofit serving at-risk communities (internet-limited users), using Cloudflare Workers + Twilio and a state-machine survey engine. Scaled it to ~10k active users with near-zero downtime, added English/Spanish support, and iteratively improved LLM behavior (Claude 3.7 Sonnet) to handle nuanced, real-world SMS responses reliably.”

“ML/AI engineer with production experience across retail and healthcare: built a real-time computer-vision shelf monitoring system at Walmart and optimized edge inference latency by ~30% using TensorRT/ONNX and pruning. Also partnered with CVS Health clinical/pharmacy teams to deliver a medication-adherence predictive model, using Streamlit explainability dashboards and achieving an 18% adherence improvement.”

“AI/software engineer with experience at Visa building a real-time transaction fraud/risk scoring microservice in the card authorization path (Python, Kafka, Kubernetes on AWS) with strict 120–150ms latency constraints and reason-code outputs for downstream decisioning. Owns ML backend end-to-end (data/feature engineering, model training, deployment) and has demonstrated production reliability work including latency spike mitigation, SLO-based observability, drift monitoring, and safe fallbacks to rule-based decisions.”

“GenAI/LLM engineer who architected and deployed a production RAG “research assistant” for JPMorgan Chase’s regulatory compliance team, focused on safety-critical behavior (mandatory citations, refusal when evidence is missing). Deep hands-on experience with LlamaIndex, Pinecone, Hugging Face embeddings, LangGraph agent workflows, and metric-driven evaluation (golden sets, TruLens), including a reported 28% relevancy lift via cross-encoder re-ranking.”

“Software Engineer at Armstrong Robotics building multithreaded C++ perception/planning/control software for robotic arms running commercial dishwashers deployed across multiple restaurant sites (up to ~2,000 dishes/day per installation). Strong in production operations: on-call debugging with deep logging/video analysis, rapid hotfixes, Datadog-based monitoring, and a Three.js calibration tool plus large regression test suite to de-risk live deployments.”

“Robotics software engineer who built an end-to-end mobile manipulation platform (Franka Panda on a Clearpath Ridgeback) for a simulated-kitchen human-robot interaction study with natural speech commands, implemented in Python/ROS. Has hands-on experience integrating diverse sensors (RealSense, LiDAR, biosignals) with deep learning frameworks (PyTorch, Hugging Face) and fine-tuning GPT-Neo, plus simulation (Gazebo) and modern deployment practices (Docker/Kubernetes, CI/CD).”

“GenAI/ML engineer in Citigroup’s finance environment who has deployed production RAG systems for investment banking under strict privacy and model-risk constraints. Built an internal-VPC Llama2 + Pinecone + LangChain solution with NER redaction and citation-based verification to prevent hallucinations, delivering major time savings, and also partnered with global finance executives to ship an AI early-warning indicator for treasury/liquidity risk.”

“Early-career robotics engineer who has integrated LLM/NLP command interfaces (OpenAI/LLaMA) into ROS-controlled industrial manipulators and built data-driven controls for underwater soft robotic actuators. Combines hands-on fabrication (balloon actuator with embedded copper traces) with sensor debugging (IMU/Aurora) and simulation work in Gazebo, with practical exposure to edge deployment constraints on Jetson Nano and model quantization.”

“LLM/RAG practitioner who productionized an LLM-driven customer communication and transaction understanding system at PayPal, emphasizing privacy/compliance guardrails and large-scale data normalization. Experienced in real-time debugging of hallucinations via retrieval pipeline tuning and in leading hands-on developer workshops and sales-aligned POCs to drive adoption.”

“Built and deployed a production LLM-powered decision-support system for supply-chain planners that explains demand forecast changes using grounded retrieval from sales, promotion, inventory, and supplier data. Implemented strict anti-hallucination guardrails and latency optimizations, deployed as a real-time AWS API with monitoring, and reported ~15% forecast accuracy improvement and ~12% supply-chain risk reduction. Experienced orchestrating data/ML/LLM workflows with Airflow, LangChain/LangGraph-style patterns, and AWS Step Functions while partnering closely with non-technical business users via demos and example-based requirements.”

“ML/NLP engineer with experience at Flatiron Health building a production NLP platform that processed millions of clinical notes, using BERT/BiLSTM-CRF and spaCy to extract and normalize entities from noisy EMR text with oncologist-in-the-loop validation. Also built scalable retail ML workflows (Spark + Kubernetes + feature store caching) and applied vector databases plus contrastive-learning fine-tuning to improve retrieval relevance and recommendations.”

“AI/ML engineer at J.P. Morgan Chase who deployed a production financial-risk prediction platform combining CNN/LSTM/gradient boosting on AWS SageMaker, with automated drift-triggered retraining and governance-grade fairness testing. Leveraged SageMaker Clarify plus SMOTE and LLM-generated synthetic data to improve minority-group F1 by 0.12, and communicated results to non-technical risk/ops teams via Power BI dashboards.”

“ML Engineer with recent Goldman Sachs experience building and deploying a production RAG/LLM assistant for summarization, drafting, and internal knowledge retrieval across financial, risk, and compliance documents. Designed for heavy regulatory constraints and scaled to 10,000+ concurrent users using Kubernetes-based orchestration, dynamic LLM routing, and rigorous testing (adversarial prompts, A/B tests, load simulations) with privacy controls like differential privacy.”

“Revamped a university academic calendar system into a Python-based calendar generation service, turning a weeks-long manual scheduling workflow into software that generates dozens of valid calendar combinations in under a minute. Also contributed to an Amazon search ML classifier by introducing precision/recall evaluation to better surface critical failure modes and improve prediction quality.”

“GenAI/LLMOps practitioner who deployed a production RAG-based customer service and knowledge retrieval system for a global bank using LangChain, FAISS/Azure Cognitive Search, GPT-4/Claude, and Guardrails—driving a reported 35% Q&A accuracy lift while reducing handle time and escalations. Also partnered with non-technical leaders at CVS Health to deliver ML-driven supply chain risk and inventory insights via anomaly detection, NLG summaries, and stakeholder-friendly dashboards.”
