Junior AI/ML & Mobile Engineer specializing in LLMs, synthetic data, and React Native

New York, United States1y exp

“Currently at Uplift AI shipping production LLM features that generate personalized growth insights from user reflections using BERT + embeddings + RAG, with strong safety/guardrail practices for sensitive contexts. Also built an end-to-end React Native UGC challenge submission/moderation system that improved repeat submissions and 7-day retention, and has applied rigorous clinical-style evaluation methods on a dental X-ray disease detection project to reduce false negatives.”

“Built a production-grade, semi-automated document recognition and classification system for large volumes of scanned PDFs, starting from little/no labeled data and handling highly variable scan quality. Deployed on AWS using SageMaker + Docker and orchestrated on EKS with a microservices design that scales CPU-heavy OCR separately from GPU inference, with strong reliability controls (validation, fallbacks, retries, readiness probes).”

“Software engineer who deployed and stabilized a real-time analytics platform at Senecio Software, focusing on production reliability, observability, and performance under load. Experienced debugging issues spanning distributed services and networking (e.g., tracing timeouts to packet loss from misconfiguration) and extending Python (FastAPI/Django) APIs for customer-specific analytics features in a configurable, maintainable way.”

“LLM/agentic AI builder who deployed a production ITSM automation agent on Google ADK integrating ServiceNow and FreshService, with strong safety guardrails (human-approval gating and runbook-only command execution) and rigorous evaluation (500 synthetic tickets; 80%+ false-positive reduction). Also partnered with finance to deliver an AI agent that automated invoice/SOW retrieval and monthly reporting to account managers, reducing manual back-and-forth.”

“Built and deployed a production-grade, multi-agent Text-to-SQL assistant that lets non-technical stakeholders query large enterprise databases in natural language. Uses Pinecone-based schema retrieval + LLM reasoning (Gemini/Claude/GPT) with a dedicated validation agent (schema/syntax checks and safe dry runs) to reduce hallucinations and improve reliability, while optimizing latency and cost via async execution and embedding caching.”

“Applied LLMs to classify long nonprofit mission statements into 8 segments without labeled data, using an ensemble of clustering/embedding methods plus zero-shot RoBERTa/BART and a Tree-of-Thought prompting pipeline with LLM-as-judge evaluation (Gemma). Also built LangChain/LlamaIndex agentic RAG workflows including a text-to-SQL data analysis assistant grounded on DB schema with retries and performance optimizations on an HPC cluster.”

“LLM engineer/data analyst who built a production RAG QA assistant over the Jurafsky & Martin NLP textbook to reduce hallucinations and provide explainable, source-grounded answers. Experienced with LangChain/LangGraph orchestration, retrieval optimization (embeddings, vector DBs, caching), and rigorous evaluation/monitoring (Retrieval@K, A/B tests, telemetry/drift). Previously communicated analytics insights to non-technical stakeholders at GS Analytics using Power BI and simplified reporting.”

“Data scientist who has built production LLM agents (GPT-4o + LangChain + RAG) to automate analyst-style ad hoc CSV analysis with guardrails and GPT-as-a-judge evaluation. Also delivered an explainable healthcare NLP system for ICD code classification by collaborating closely with clinicians, using a hybrid rule-based decision tree + BERT model to reach 97% accuracy and cut manual review time.”

“Data analytics and BI professional with experience turning messy institutional and customer data into decision-ready reporting and predictive systems. They combine strong SQL/Python execution with end-to-end ownership of churn analytics, stakeholder alignment, and operational rollout into dashboards and CRM workflows.”
