Mid-level AI/ML Engineer specializing in LLMs, RAG, and scalable inference

San Francisco, CA6y exp

“Backend/retrieval-focused engineer with production experience at Perplexity building a large-scale real-time Q&A system using retrieval-augmented generation, emphasizing low-latency, high-quality answers through ranking, context optimization, and caching. Also has orchestration experience from both product-facing LLM pipelines and large-scale infrastructure workflows at Meta, and has partnered with non-technical stakeholders to align AI trade-offs with business goals.”

“Backend/full-stack engineer (Amazon experience) who built an AWS-based integration testing platform using Flask, ECS, Docker, and CloudWatch—cutting 1000+ test cases from ~5 hours to ~30 minutes while improving log visibility for non-engineering users. Also led a zero-downtime EU region migration with rigorous ORR testing, and built a Kinesis/Firehose/S3 + Glue/Spark replay mechanism for resilient data recovery. Side project: reproducible, cost-efficient LLM hosting platform on EKS using CDK and Karpenter for scale-to-zero.”

Mid-level AI/ML Engineer specializing in fraud detection and clinical LLM assistants

New York, NY6y exp

“Built and deployed a production clinical support LLM assistant at Mayo Clinic using a LangChain-orchestrated RAG architecture (Llama 2/PaLM) over de-identified clinical records, integrating BigQuery with Pinecone for semantic retrieval. Focused on healthcare-critical reliability by reducing hallucinations through grounding, implementing HIPAA-aligned privacy controls (Cloud DLP, VPC Service Controls), and running structured evaluations with clinician feedback.”

“Technology-first venture builder with strong familiarity in the VC/accelerator landscape, specializing in greenfield innovation, M&A, and large-scale transformation/modernization. Described building a venture-funded retail banking greenfield startup to integrate lending-as-a-service for SME lending while meeting federal and local financial services compliance requirements.”

“Recent internship project at Google Workspace building an LLM-driven Python backend pipeline to extract/enrich NLP features from messy customer web domains and integrate them into a Domain Feature Store for personalization and promotions. Also has hands-on Kubernetes/Docker deployment experience for a Digital Signage SaaS backend with GitHub Actions CI, plus strong streaming-systems knowledge (Kafka exactly-once, schema evolution, Flink scaling) and built an information retrieval system handling 30,000+ cases.”

Mid-level Software Engineer specializing in distributed backend systems on AWS

Seattle, WA4y exp

“Built production systems in the AWS ecosystem, including an internal AI assistant for diagnosing account transfer and permissions issues and an end-to-end account transfer workflow used by enterprise customers. Stands out for combining LLM/RAG design with strong distributed systems reliability practices, emphasizing guardrails, fallbacks, and operational trust in high-stakes workflows.”

“ML/LLM engineer who built a production RAG system (GPT-4 + FAISS + FastAPI) to deliver fast, grounded answers from proprietary documents, optimizing for sub-200ms latency and high-concurrency scale. Strong MLOps/observability background: drift monitoring with Prometheus + Streamlit, automated retraining via Airflow, Kubernetes autoscaling, and MLflow-managed model lifecycle, plus inference cost reduction through quantization and structured pruning.”

“Software engineer at Intel who owns a production Go/Kubernetes backend for supply-chain transparency and end-to-end hardware integrity verification in a hybrid cloud setup (AWS control plane + Azure data plane). Also built and shipped an AI agent workflow for real-estate due diligence that turns raw Excel spreadsheets into structured investment outputs and auto-generated PowerPoint insights using LangGraph, with strong emphasis on verification, observability, and reliability guardrails.”
