“Red Hat ML/LLM engineer who designed and deployed a production LLM-powered customer support automation system using RAG, improving latency by 30% via PEFT and vector search optimization. Built security and governance into retrieval (access-level filtering, encrypted Pinecone/ChromaDB) and delivered SHAP-based explainability via a dashboard for non-technical stakeholders. Experienced orchestrating distributed ML/RAG pipelines across AWS SageMaker and OpenShift with Airflow/Prefect, plus multi-agent workflows using CrewAI and LangGraph.”

“Serial entrepreneur who built Verb Technology from a garage startup to a Nasdaq IPO, raising multiple rounds of capital along the way. Invented interactive live streaming technology that was acquired by Amazon and demonstrated rapid product/market response during COVID by prototyping and launching a solution for users while tightly managing AWS costs.”

“Data engineer with experience delivering an end-to-end pipeline handling ~3.5TB in a star-schema setup (fact + dimensions) and producing business-facing tables in Hive/Spark. Identified and resolved UAT-reported duplicate issues caused by joins through root-cause analysis, and also built automation to run Spark SQL metrics on weekly/monthly/quarterly cadences and distribute results to users.”

“Data engineer with experience at Sony and Walmart building high-volume, near-real-time analytics and ingestion systems. Has owned end-to-end pipelines from Kafka/Spark streaming through S3/Parquet and Redshift/Looker, emphasizing data quality (Great Expectations), observability (CloudWatch/Azure Monitor), and reliability (Airflow SLAs, retries, checkpointing), including measurable performance and latency improvements.”

“Data engineer focused on fraud and banking analytics who has owned end-to-end batch + streaming pipelines at very large scale (hundreds of millions of records/day). Built robust data quality/observability layers (schema validation, anomaly detection, alerting) and delivered low-latency serving via AWS Lambda/API Gateway with DynamoDB + Redis, plus external data ingestion/scraping pipelines orchestrated in Airflow with anti-bot protections.”
