Vetted FAISS Professionals

“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.”

“Built and shipped open-source LLM/RAG systems, including a generative AI assistant grounded on ~30,000 scraped university web pages, improving response accuracy ~30% by moving from TF-IDF-only retrieval to a hybrid sentence-transformer approach with fallback controls. Also partnered with non-technical leadership at Securi.ai to deliver real-time predictive analytics dashboards (Elasticsearch + Jira/ServiceNow) that reduced project overhead by 18%.”

“LLM/agentic systems builder at Verizon who deployed a LangGraph-orchestrated multi-agent ticket-automation platform with RAG (FAISS) to replace brittle rule-based bots. Improved routing correctness by ~30–40%, hit ~300ms latency targets via model routing, and reduced ops workload by ~60% through tight iteration with non-technical stakeholders and strong testing/observability practices.”

“Backend/LLM engineer who built a production-critical Amazon Bedrock + RAG correction and compliance layer for employee communications, integrating tightly with existing Spring Boot/AWS microservices to reduce manual review while keeping outputs explainable and auditable. Also designed an event-driven system processing 10M+ events/day (SQS/Lambda/DynamoDB/Elasticsearch) and handled on-call incidents with strong observability and reliability patterns (idempotency, retries, hotspot mitigation).”

“Built and shipped a production enterprise RAG knowledge assistant that returns grounded, cited answers and uses confidence-based fallbacks (clarifying questions/abstention) with monitoring and compliance controls for sensitive data. Implemented end-to-end agent orchestration (function calling, structured JSON, state, retries/rate limits) plus eval/feedback loops, and achieved a reported 30–40% improvement in knowledge-task completion time while reducing hallucinations via retrieval improvements.”

“GenAI/LLM engineer who architected and deployed a production RAG “research assistant” for JPMorgan Chase’s regulatory compliance team, focused on safety-critical behavior (mandatory citations, refusal when evidence is missing). Deep hands-on experience with LlamaIndex, Pinecone, Hugging Face embeddings, LangGraph agent workflows, and metric-driven evaluation (golden sets, TruLens), including a reported 28% relevancy lift via cross-encoder re-ranking.”

“Applied ML/LLM engineer currently building AppleCare’s production chat recommender, owning the full lifecycle from transcript cleaning and fine-tuning through distributed deployment, monitoring, and iterative improvement. Their work delivered >10% copy-count improvement, 5% lower modification rate, 60% cost reduction, and $1.1M profitability in 2025, and they also created a reasoning-data generation approach that enabled a reasoning model and a judge model that cut eval time by over 99%.”

“Built and deployed a production LLM/RAG fraud investigation system to replace manual investigator workflows, combining transaction data, historical cases, and policy documents with agent-style steps and LoRA fine-tuning. Demonstrates strong reliability engineering (grounding, citations, abstention paths), performance optimization (retrieval/indexing/caching), and end-to-end MLOps orchestration using Azure ML Pipelines/MLflow plus Kubernetes/Argo with canary and rollback deployments.”

“Built and shipped a production LLM-powered RAG assistant for enterprise internal document search (PDFs, knowledge bases, structured data), addressing real-world issues like noisy documents, hallucinations, and latency with grounded prompting, retrieval-confidence fallbacks, and performance optimizations. Also partnered with compliance and business teams at JPMc to deliver a solution aligned with regulatory constraints, supported by monitoring, feedback loops, and systematic evaluation.”

“AI/ML engineer (Cognizant) who built a production, real-time credit card fraud detection platform combining deep-learning anomaly detection with an LLM-based explanation layer. Strong focus on regulated deployment: addressed class imbalance and feature drift, and added guardrails (SHAP/structured inputs, fine-tuning on analyst reports, rule-based validation) to keep explanations accurate and compliant. Orchestrated the full pipeline with Airflow + Databricks/Spark and used MLflow/Prometheus plus A/B and shadow deployments for measurable reliability.”

Los Angeles, CA7y exp

“Built a production assistive-vision iPhone app to help visually impaired users find grocery items, training a custom YOLO detector on 2,000+ self-collected/annotated images and deploying via CoreML with a cloud multimodal LLM for navigation instructions. Brings hands-on AWS serverless + ECS container deployment (CDK/GitHub Actions) and a disciplined approach to AI workflow reliability (state-machine design, offline evals, stress tests, logging/metrics), plus experience communicating model insights to non-technical stakeholders (MOTER Technologies).”

“Built and shipped a production LLM-powered multi-agent system that autonomously generates and publishes YouTube videos end-to-end (trend discovery, script writing, image/caption generation, timestamped video assembly). Emphasizes production readiness with extensive automated testing, Redis/Postgres/TimescaleDB state orchestration, and Prometheus/Grafana monitoring, reporting ~100x faster content production and improved engagement/viewership.”

“ML/AI engineer with strong end-to-end production ownership across predictive ML and Generative AI use cases. They built a churn prediction platform that cut churn 12% and preserved about $1.2M in annual revenue, and also shipped a RAG-based support assistant that reduced ticket resolution time 30% while improving agent satisfaction and onboarding speed.”

“ML/AI engineer with hands-on ownership of both classical ML and GenAI systems in production. They built an end-to-end churn prediction service on AWS and also shipped RAG-based document search/summarization features, with clear experience in monitoring, hallucination reduction, cost/latency optimization, and creating shared Python/LLM infrastructure used across teams.”
