Vetted Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) Professionals

“Built and shipped a production LLM pipeline for nursing home Medicare reimbursement (PDF OCR + fact extraction + keyword RAG + QA) that reportedly increased payouts by ~$1K/month per patient. Strong in LLM ops/benchmarking (ground truth, LLM-as-judge, cost/I-O tracking) and pragmatic optimization—swapped retrieval approaches, fine-tuned a small model to cut OCR cost 90%, and migrated workloads to Azure/Temporal to scale nightly processing 10x.”

“Robotics software engineer from Ati Motors who brought a Linear MPC approach (based on Kuhne et al.) into production, rebuilding parts of the planning stack to eliminate oscillations and safely double AMR speed from 0.8 m/s to 1.6 m/s. Also delivered an end-to-end point-cloud detection pipeline (PointPillars) including synthetic data generation in Isaac Sim and TensorRT deployment for real-time human/trolley detection, with a strong focus on production reliability via iterative hardening and nightly SIL.”

“Robotics software engineer who delivered the Lunar ROADSTER—an autonomous bulldozing rover for lunar terrain manipulation—building the control system, path planning, and perception in ROS 2. Implemented crater detection using a YOLO model fused with ZED stereo depth to recover crater geometry, and structured autonomy around ROS 2 actions integrated into an FSM with CI/CD-backed system testing. Also has industrial robotics experience controlling a Fanuc arm for additive manufacturing and building ROS interfaces for PLC I/O.”

“Built a production internal knowledge assistant using a RAG pipeline over large spreadsheets, PDFs, and support documents, using transformer embeddings stored in FAISS. Focused on real-world production challenges—format normalization, retrieval quality, hallucination reduction (context-only + citations), and latency—using hybrid retrieval, quantization, and containerized deployment, and communicated the workflow to non-technical stakeholders using simple analogies.”

“Built production LLM systems focused on reliability and safety, including a plain-English deployment tool that generates validated plans and provisions to Kubernetes while preventing unsafe actions via schema enforcement and plan/execute separation. Also created multi-LLM workflows (LangGraph) and stakeholder-friendly demos at Bosch, including a PyQt/FastAPI/CUDA app comparing SAM2 vs SAMWISE for on-device object detection with intuitive UX for business users.”

“Built a production RAG-based "knowledge copilot" for support/ops using LangChain/LangGraph, implementing the full pipeline (ingestion, chunking, embeddings, vector DB retrieval/rerank, guarded generation with citations) and operating it as monitored microservices with CI/CD. Also designed an event-driven, streaming backend for real-time inventory ordering predictions that reduced stockouts by 25%, and has hands-on incident response experience stabilizing LLM API latency/5xx spikes using Datadog/APM and resilience patterns.”
