“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.”

“Graduate researcher who builds production-grade AI systems spanning LLM security evaluation and on-device RAG. Created HoneyLearner, a self-learning attack framework using GPT-4-class models as structured black-box attackers against honeywords defenses, with rigorous metrics and reproducible orchestration (Airflow/Spark/Kafka/Docker). Also partnered with agriculture scientists at Texas A&M–Corpus Christi to deliver UAV + 3D point-cloud crop-stress maps that cut time-to-insight ~40% and enabled ~30% earlier interventions.”

“Software engineer and University of Chicago graduate teaching assistant who built a full-stack internal analytics dashboard (React/TypeScript + Node/Express) and worked in RabbitMQ-based microservices with Prometheus/Grafana observability. Also created an AI-powered ERD diagram generator (React + MermaidJS + OpenAI) adopted by students to save hours on database assignments, using validation loops to ensure valid Mermaid output.”

“Backend/DevX engineer with startup experience who built internal JavaScript SDKs for POS integrations, including a daily GMV calculation feature standardized across multiple POS providers. Strong in performance debugging (used Jaeger to resolve legacy WebSocket bottlenecks) and developer enablement—built a cronjob migration tool (ArgoWorkflow to internal platform) with documentation that let teams migrate in ~30 seconds, plus handled on-call and internal support.”

“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).”

“Post-graduate, self-directed robotics/RL practitioner who independently built a modular reinforcement learning training framework in Python using Stable-Baselines3, Gymnasium, and PyTorch. Emphasizes reproducible experimentation (multi-seed validation), simulation (PyBullet/Box2D), and systematic comparison of algorithms/environments via a factory-pattern architecture.”

“Robotics software engineer who built and deployed a full custom ROS navigation stack (global/local planners) for a TurtleBot3 reconnaissance robot, validated in Gazebo and on real hardware. Has hands-on experience customizing MoveBase for an autonomous warehouse mobile robot internship and optimizing multi-robot ROS communications by pruning and throttling high-volume sensor streams, plus CI/CD automation via Bitbucket Pipelines and Docker.”

“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.”
