Mid-level Machine Learning Engineer specializing in Generative AI and MLOps

Missouri, USA3y exp

“LLM/agent engineer who has shipped production RAG chatbots in sustainability-focused domains, including a packaging recommendation assistant that standardized messy user inputs and used Pinecone-backed retrieval over product/regulatory data. Experienced orchestrating end-to-end ML workflows with Airflow and AWS Step Functions/Lambda, emphasizing reliability (property-based testing, circuit breakers, OpenTelemetry) and measurable performance (latency/cost). Partnered closely with non-technical leadership to ship 3 weeks early, driving adoption by 150+ businesses and ~20% reported waste reduction.”

“Robotics-focused engineer who built a non-holonomic self-driving car on Raspberry Pi 5 using ROS 2, implementing sensor fusion (robot_localization EKF), 2D SLAM (slam_toolbox), custom Hybrid A*/RRT* planners, and MPC trajectory tracking. Demonstrated strong real-time debugging and performance tuning (timestamp sync, CPU contention mitigation) and is extending the platform toward CV-based plant identification and autonomous plant watering.”

“Built and productionized a RAG-based analytics Q&A assistant for a financial analytics team, enabling natural-language querying across 200+ datasets (SQL tables, PDFs, compliance docs, wikis) and cutting turnaround time by 60%. Deep experience delivering regulated, audit-ready LLM systems on Azure (Azure OpenAI + LangChain) with strict grounding/citations, hybrid retrieval, and AKS-based low-latency deployment, plus strong collaboration with compliance analysts and auditors via iterative Gradio demos.”

“Robotics engineer who built a 6-axis force-torque sensor system end-to-end at ROAM Lab, including electronics, low-level drivers, and ROS2 live inference with time-series deep learning (ultimately a 1D ResNet) to handle highly noisy, session-shifting signals. Also upgraded tactile manipulation models to time-series inputs by modifying long-standing ROS architectures, and has prior experience in defense (L3Harris) with production-grade testing and code review practices; published work: arxiv.org/abs/2410.03481.”

“Candidate combines fraud analytics experience at Citi with a clinical AI capstone involving reproducible ML pipelines for imaging and notes data. They stand out for turning messy, high-volume data into decision-ready reporting, automating evaluation workflows, and translating analytics into operational impact—from fraud rule changes to retention metric adoption.”

“Built and owned a production conversational AI platform for a healthcare contact center, including RAG-based agent assist, hybrid retrieval, safety guardrails, and production monitoring. Stands out for combining LLM product delivery with strong operational rigor, driving a reported 25-30% improvement in handling time in a sensitive healthcare environment.”

“Robotics software engineer with hands-on experience migrating a robotics project from ARM to AMD by building a Dockerized environment with PyTorch/CUDA dependencies, improving data processing and battery efficiency. Has integrated ROS 2 nodes for a Time-of-Flight camera and debugged motion-planning issues (tight-turn stopping) using data collection and iterative tuning; also built custom robots in Webots for sensor/actuator-driven behaviors.”

“Robotics software engineer who led localization/SLAM work on an autonomous indoor security drone operating in a pre-mapped environment. Implemented a robust localization strategy combining visual PnP loop closures with point-cloud ICP to mitigate issues like visual map aging, and uses ROS tooling (rosbag/TF/RViz) plus Gazebo and Docker for repeatable debugging, simulation, and development.”

Junior Robotics & Computer Vision Engineer specializing in perception and autonomy

Ames, IA2y exp

“Robotics engineer with capstone experience building an autonomous food-assembly robot arm, owning perception/deep learning (SAM2-based segmentation) and a model-based RL manipulation policy for deformable food items while also serving as project manager. As a robotics engineering intern at Salin247, optimized an autonomous farm vehicle perception stack to hit 20 FPS by cutting latency from 200ms+ to ~40ms using GPU acceleration (CUDA OpenCV, CuPy) and multiprocessing, and built ROS 2 nodes for real-time perception and streaming.”
