Vetted Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) Professionals

“ML/NLP practitioner who has delivered production systems in regulated domains, including a healthcare compliance pipeline using RAG (GPT-4/Claude) plus TF-IDF retrieval that increased document review throughput 4.5x. Also has hands-on experience improving fraud detection data quality via entity resolution (Levenshtein, Dedupe.py) validated with A/B testing, and building scalable, monitored workflows with Airflow, CI/CD, and AWS SageMaker.”

“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).”

“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.”

“Backend/AI engineer who built production-grade intelligence systems in high-stakes domains including tax/legal document analysis and brain tumor MRI workflows. Stands out for combining LLM/RAG product delivery with strong engineering rigor around retrieval evaluation, grounding, validation, observability, and safe fallbacks—turning impressive demos into systems users could actually trust.”

“Robotics competition (ABU Robocon) team member who programmed two robots for a rugby-style game, integrating IoT sensors and real-time decision-making. Implemented low-latency, secure inter-robot communication by moving from Bluetooth to ESP8266/NodeMCU WiFi (with Bluetooth as backup) and used OpenCV plus CNN training workflows for vision-related tasks; no practical ROS/ROS2 experience.”

“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.”

“Built and deployed real-world systems end-to-end across security and healthcare contexts: led a 3-person team delivering a university vehicle tracking system with 30% cost savings and 1-year post-launch monitoring. Also implemented a healthcare RAG chatbot with adaptive query routing that cut LLM costs by 40% while maintaining answer accuracy, and has experience debugging non-deterministic LLM behavior in DevOps pipeline automation.”

“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.”

“Backend/cloud engineer from Resilient Tech with hands-on experience deploying REST APIs and database migrations into a live ERP used by real customers while maintaining 99% uptime. Has debugged intermittent AWS container timeouts down to security group/load balancer misconfigurations, and has extended Python in an ERPNext system to meet GST/e-invoicing compliance requirements with strong customer collaboration.”

Junior Machine Learning Engineer specializing in LLM agents, RAG, and MLOps

Charlotte, NC2y exp

“AI/ML engineer who has shipped production systems across computer vision and conversational agents: built a YOLOv8-based wheel fitment pipeline at a Techstars-backed automotive startup, focusing on sub-second latency, monitoring, and robust fallback mechanisms that drove 2–3x page view growth and +5–6k users. Also built a voice-based interview platform orchestrating Deepgram + GPT-4 Mini + OpenAI TTS with FSM-driven reliability, and has hands-on RAG experience (LangChain, hybrid retrieval, cross-encoder reranking, custom pseudo-query generation).”

Yashwant Gandham

Screened

Junior Machine Learning & Backend Engineer specializing in LLM systems and ML infrastructure

Boulder, CO1y exp

“Built and deployed production RAG-based document search/Q&A systems (DocChat and an internship marketing RAG), using a React + FastAPI stack on GCP with docs stored in GCP buckets and retrieval via embeddings/vector DB. Emphasizes cost/performance tradeoffs (reported ~40% cost reduction) and ships via Docker (Railway), with load/API testing using JMeter and Swagger; regularly collaborates with a CEO stakeholder to iterate and push changes to production.”
