Vetted Embeddings Professionals

“AI Engineering Intern at The Etherloop building the backend for a healthcare lifestyle recommendation app, including a multi-agent RAG-based system that uses curated SME data plus web search to generate personalized supplement recommendations from user lifestyle details and blood biomarkers. Evaluates against 500+ SME ground-truth profiles with ranking metrics and focuses on HIPAA-aligned deployment, privacy/security, and guardrails to reduce hallucinations and unsafe outputs.”

“Built a 24/7 Python/LangChain email agent in production with validation, circuit breakers, human-review escalation, and structured observability. Also applied data and automation skills at Community Dreams Foundation, including turning a vague donor-insights request into a usable donor-risk prediction workflow and raising ETL reliability from roughly 85% to 99% by diagnosing SQLite concurrency issues.”

“Full-stack engineer who built and scaled an AI-powered web product (React/Next.js + TypeScript/NestJS) with MongoDB, Redis, and RabbitMQ. Strong in rapid iteration while maintaining production quality—uses versioned APIs, feature flags, CI/CD, and observability (correlation IDs/structured logs) to ship frequently and debug distributed workflows. Also created an internal operations dashboard for real-time visibility and control of background jobs/AI workflows that was adopted quickly by ops and product teams.”

“AI Software Engineer (student employee) at University of Washington IT who helped deploy "Purple," a governed, explainable LLM platform on Azure used by 100,000+ students/faculty/staff. Independently led scalable reliability efforts by building automated agent quality/load/red-team testing and CI/CD health validation (Playwright/Node.js, Azure DevOps), and previously built an explainable AI scheduling assistant for clinical operations at Proliance Surgeons.”

Mid-level AI/ML Engineer specializing in predictive modeling, data pipelines, and RAG systems

Florida, USA5y exp

“Built and productionized an LLM-powered internal knowledge search system in a regulated environment, using embeddings/vector DB retrieval with strict grounding and confidence gating to reduce hallucinations. Reported ~45% accuracy improvement over keyword search and implemented end-to-end orchestration, monitoring, CI/CD, and incremental re-indexing to manage latency and data freshness while driving adoption with business stakeholders.”

“Built a production AI-native internal onboarding feature that reduced manual product setup effort by combining barcode API data, product photos, structured LLM outputs, and a polished real-time camera UI. Demonstrates hands-on experience across the full stack of LLM systems: prompt/schema design, multimodal inputs, backend orchestration with SQS and vector retrieval, and production reliability through evals, telemetry, and drift monitoring.”

“ML/AI engineer with hands-on ownership of production recommendation and GenAI systems, spanning experimentation, deployment, monitoring, and iteration. Stands out for delivering measurable outcomes—22% CTR lift, 15% conversion lift, and a 30% reduction in support tickets—while demonstrating strong judgment on latency, cost, and safety tradeoffs in real-world systems.”

“Software engineer with 2 years of professional full-stack experience plus a CS master's journey in the US, who has since focused heavily on building hackathon-winning AI systems. Stands out for combining production-minded backend architecture, TypeScript-heavy reliability work, and multi-agent LLM applications spanning physical security and insurance claims automation.”

San Ramon, CA26y exp

“Current CTO of Idmission leading a 150+ person engineering organization, with deep experience scaling delivery, CI/CD, and architecture modernization. Combines executive leadership with hands-on technical depth across microservices, Kubernetes, and AI systems, including a RAG support platform that reduced resolution time by 50% and passive liveness technology that improved client acquisition by 20%.”

“AI/LLM engineer with healthcare domain experience who built a production clinical support “chart bot” for Molina, including PHI-safe ingestion of 200k+ PDF policies, vector retrieval, and a fine-tuned LLaMA served via vLLM on ECS Fargate. Demonstrated measurable performance wins (HNSW + namespace partitioning; 30% inference latency reduction) and a rigorous evaluation/monitoring approach, while partnering closely with nurses and operations teams to shape workflows and guardrails.”

“Built and deployed a production RAG system for financial/compliance teams using GPT-4, Claude, and local models to retrieve and summarize thousands of internal documents with strong security controls (role-based retrieval, PII masking). Drove significant operational gains (30+ hours/week saved, ~35% productivity lift, ~45% faster responses) and orchestrated end-to-end ingestion/embedding/index refresh pipelines with Airflow, S3, and SageMaker while partnering closely with compliance stakeholders on auditability and traceability.”

“Software engineer with connected-car/automotive production experience who owned an end-to-end remote door lock/unlock feature and introduced unit testing (GTest) plus rig/simulator validation. Also built and productionized an AI-native AWS cloud cost assistant (Lex + GPT-based LLM + Lambda + RAG/vector DB) with guardrails and achieved 94% evaluation accuracy. Helped replace a third-party solution with an in-house build, saving the company ~€9M.”
