“Backend/data platform engineer who led a major redesign of a hybrid streaming+batch analytics platform processing 10+ TB/day (Airflow/Hive/BigQuery) with strong data-quality automation. Also built a production RAG PDF assistant with concrete mitigations for hallucinations and prompt injection (re-ranking, grounding, verifier step) and has deep experience executing low-risk migrations (dual-write, blue-green, rapid rollback) and implementing JWT-based row-level security.”

“Performance creative/growth marketer with hands-on experience running full-funnel paid social for e-commerce and other brands, focused on combating creative fatigue and scaling efficiently. Uses structured A/B testing and modular creative systems across Meta, TikTok, and YouTube; recently delivered a 22% CPA reduction and 28% ROAS lift by shifting to problem-solution and social-proof storytelling.”

“Backend engineer who built an async FastAPI data pipeline at GHN Career Academy to replace a manual Excel-based workflow, migrating 30k+ contact records into Airtable with validation/deduplication and best-effort GPT-based enrichment. Emphasizes reliability under messy real-world data and partial failures via structured logging, retries, and resumable processing, unlocking downstream automations (e.g., Zapier and chatbots).”

“LLM/agent engineer who built a production LangGraph multi-agent orchestrator connecting GitHub and APM/observability signals with a chain-of-verification loop for root-cause analysis. Emphasizes pragmatic architecture (start simple with state summaries), performance tuning (async LLM calls, Docker), and rigorous evaluation (LLM-as-judge, adversarial testing, hallucination/instruction adherence metrics, tool-call tracing) while iterating with non-technical stakeholders via A/B testing.”

“Built and deployed a production LLM-powered clinical note summarization system used by care managers to speed review of 5–20 page unstructured medical records. Implemented safety-focused validation (prompt constraints, rule-based and section-level checks, human-in-the-loop) to reduce hallucinations while maintaining low latency and meeting privacy/regulatory constraints, integrating via APIs into existing clinical tools.”

“At Dreamline AI, built and productionized an AWS-based incentive intelligence platform that uses Llama-2/GPT-4 to extract eligibility rules from unstructured state policy documents into structured JSON, then processes them with Glue/PySpark and serves results via Lambda/SageMaker/API Gateway. Designed state-specific ingestion connectors plus schema validation and automated checks/alerts to handle frequent policy/format changes without breaking the pipeline, and partnered with business/analytics stakeholders to deliver interpretable eligibility decisions via explanations and dashboards.”

“ML/LLM engineer at Charles Schwab who built a production loan-advisor chatbot integrated with internal knowledge and loan-calculator APIs, adding strict numeric validation to prevent rate hallucinations and optimizing context to control costs. Also runs ~40 Airflow DAGs orchestrating retraining/ETL/drift monitoring with an automated Snowflake→SageMaker→auto-deploy pipeline, and uses rigorous testing plus canary rollouts tied to business metrics and compliance constraints.”

“Senior enterprise architecture and engineering leader (Sr. Director / Principal Architect) who has owned enterprise IT strategy and governance for a $100M budget and partnered directly with C-suite stakeholders. Led a cruise-industry employee/crew digital transformation, scaling to 10 agile teams (~70 people) using SAFe/TOGAF and making architecture decisions optimized for low-connectivity environments (local database to avoid internet authentication).”

“Built an AI-driven insurance policy summarization platform at Marsh, taking it end-to-end from messy PDF ingestion/OCR and custom extraction through LLM fine-tuning and AWS SageMaker deployment. Delivered measurable impact (25% reduction in manual review time, 99% uptime) and demonstrated strong production MLOps/LLMOps practices with Airflow/Step Functions orchestration, rigorous evaluation (ROUGE + human review), and continuous monitoring for drift, latency, and hallucinations.”
