“Full-stack/ML-leaning engineer who has shipped production-grade real-time analytics and an internal AI support assistant using RAG over enterprise documentation. Demonstrates strong systems thinking across scalability, reliability, observability, and LLM safety/evaluation (thresholded retrieval, RBAC, response validation, regression-gated evals), with concrete iteration based on performance metrics and user feedback.”

“Cloud/infrastructure engineer with strong production operations background across AWS, Azure, and Kubernetes, supporting 30+ enterprise workloads for ~40,000 users. Demonstrated incident leadership (hybrid AKS-to-AWS routing outage) with a reported 60% MTTR reduction, plus hands-on CI/CD (Jenkins) and Terraform-based IaC for AWS (VPC/EC2/EKS). Lacks direct IBM Power/AIX/PowerHA experience but emphasizes transferable ops and troubleshooting skills.”

“Data engineer who has owned production pipelines end-to-end—from Kafka/Airflow ingestion through SQL/Python validation and dbt transformations into Redshift/BI. Also built and operated a large-scale distributed web scraping platform (50–100 sites daily, ~5–10M records/day) with Kubernetes, Kafka queues, robust retries/DLQ, anti-bot measures, and backfill-safe raw HTML storage.”
