Senior AI Engineer specializing in LLM agents, RAG, and scalable data platforms

7y exp

“ML/data engineer who owned an end-to-end production sales analytics pipeline at 15,000+ user scale, delivering ~50% compute reduction, ~80% faster reporting, and ~$1.2M impact. Also shipped a production RAG-based AI assistant over internal BigQuery/docs with evaluation metrics and safety guardrails, and built shared Python libraries to standardize reliability and accelerate engineering teams.”

“At PwC, built and productionized an agentic RAG enterprise search assistant over 6M internal documents (8M embeddings), deployed across AWS and GCP. Drove major retrieval gains (72%→92% precision via BM25+dense hybrid with RRF and cross-encoder re-ranking), reduced hallucinations 30%, achieved <2s latency at 50–60K queries/month, and cut support tickets 30%—boosting adoption to 2,500 users by adding source-cited answers.”

Senior Data Scientist specializing in analytics, experimentation, and BI on AWS

Austin, TX7y exp

“Data/ML practitioner focused on healthcare data quality and record linkage: analyzed 10M+ records, built anomaly detection and NLP-driven entity resolution, and automated AWS ETL/validation pipelines (Glue/Redshift/Lambda), cutting data errors by 40% and generating $500k in annual savings. Has hands-on experience with embeddings (Sentence Transformers/spaCy), FAISS vector search, and fine-tuning for domain-specific matching.”

Mid-level Full-Stack Engineer specializing in FinTech and AI platforms

New York, NY4y exp

“Full-stack engineer with 3 years of AI/ML experience who has shipped production LLM workflows, including a Bloomberg triage dashboard that cut manual processing by 35%. Combines React/TypeScript product sense with AWS/Spring/Lambda backend architecture and unusually strong practical judgment around evals, trust, retrieval, latency, and UX for real-world AI systems.”

“Built and deployed a production RAG-based LLM Q&A and summarization platform for internal documents, emphasizing grounded answers with structured prompting and citations to reduce hallucinations. Experienced orchestrating end-to-end LLM workflows with LangChain plus cloud pipelines (Azure ML Pipelines, AWS), and runs iterative evaluation using both metrics (accuracy/hallucination/latency/cost) and real user feedback to drive reliability.”

“FinTech/AI engineer who has shipped an end-to-end discrepancy-detection product for financial managers using Next.js, FastAPI/GraphQL, Pinecone, and AWS (with dev/staging/prod, observability, A/B testing, and documentation). Also built an AI-native “AI Genesis” system with agentic cyclic workflows, routing, and tool use, and has experience modernizing legacy systems via the strangler fig pattern while coordinating with senior stakeholders on a 5G autonomous simulation platform.”

Mid-level AI Engineer specializing in Agentic AI and Generative AI

6y exp

“Built and deployed a live LLM-powered platform that takes a LinkedIn job URL + resume and generates job-specific resumes and personalized outreach at scale, with production-grade logging/monitoring/retries on Vercel + Railway. Experienced with agent orchestration (AWS Bedrock/Strands, LangGraph, CrewAI) and rigorous AI workflow testing, plus stakeholder-facing prototypes like data lineage/metadata and NL-to-SQL + dashboard generation.”

“ML engineer with production experience across healthcare and fraud domains, including end-to-end ownership of a telecare patient deterioration system at Oracle Health and a GPT-4/RAG fraud reporting solution at Cognizant. Stands out for combining scalable data/ML infrastructure, clinical NLP, and GenAI delivery with measurable gains in model quality and workflow efficiency.”

“Healthcare ML/AI engineer at Cigna who has owned a clinical RAG pipeline from prototype through production, monitoring, compliance, and iteration. Stands out for combining LLM product delivery with healthcare-grade safety and explainability, driving a 38% retrieval precision gain, 42% hallucination reduction, and meaningful improvements in team velocity and system reliability.”

“Applied LLMs and a graph-RAG architecture in Neo4j to automate an accounting firm's cross-checking of transactional books against tax regulations, indexing 1,000+ pages into a knowledge graph with vector search. Combines agentic LLM workflows with classical NER (Hugging Face/NLTK) and validates using expert-labeled held-out data plus precision/recall and measured accountant time savings after deployment.”
