Junior Research Assistant specializing in LLMs, NLP, and data systems

Cambridge, MA3y exp

“Software-focused candidate who built a data monitoring pipeline during a hedge fund internship, integrating real databases and an email API to notify teams when data was ready. Comfortable working through legacy/scrappy code and uses LLMs to accelerate comprehension and delivery, with an emphasis on thorough testing and clear communication with stakeholders/customers.”

“NVIDIA engineer who built and shipped a production LLM-powered enterprise knowledge system (summarization, transcription, and Q&A) that cut document retrieval time ~30%. Deep hands-on experience with RAG (FAISS/Pinecone), GPU-accelerated microservices on AWS, and reliability/safety practices (Guardrails AI, prompt A/B testing, canary releases) plus strong MLOps orchestration across Airflow, Step Functions, and Kubernetes GitOps.”

Senior QA Test Analyst specializing in game and service testing

Los Angeles, CA11y exp

“Game QA/automation tester with experience at Blizzard, Bossfight Entertainment, and Netflix, spanning manual-to-automation transitions, Selenium/C# UI automation, and CI/CD nightly reporting via TestRail. Known for an end-user-driven test strategy, strong defect isolation (including crash dumps), and cross-functional test planning that influenced multiplayer UX/design decisions.”

“Backend engineer who helped redesign and refactor Forma’s backend during an app rewrite, emphasizing modularity, maintainability, and A/B testing support while delivering feature parity on a quarter-long timeline. Led a careful database migration using parallel databases with schema differences, validating integrity via staging and SQL checks, and has experience debugging subtle computer-vision overflow edge cases.”

“Platform/backend engineer focused on Kubernetes at scale: built a Java control-plane service for multi-region cluster provisioning/monitoring/upgrades using Kafka-driven async workers, and solved peak-load provisioning failures by eliminating blocking I/O and dynamically scaling consumers. Also shipped an LLM-assisted Kubernetes troubleshooting/remediation feature that pulls Prometheus logs/metrics into prompts and uses guardrails (confidence thresholds + human-in-the-loop) to prevent risky actions.”
