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.”

“Engineering leader who has operated effectively in both a VC-backed startup and SAP, combining director-level org leadership with day-to-day technical depth. Notable for re-architecting integrations that produced a 3x revenue gain, leading a 90-engineer matrixed organization, and staying hands-on in GenAI, infrastructure, and full-stack problem solving.”

“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 a production agentic AI system to automate data science work using a layered architecture (executive-summary handling, tool-based execution, and on-the-fly code generation). Demonstrates strong end-to-end agent development practices including RAG with vector databases, prompt engineering, and multi-method evaluation (LLM-as-judge/human/code-based), plus Airflow-based orchestration for ML data pipelines and close collaboration with business end users.”

“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.”

“ML/LLM engineer who has shipped a production transformer-based document understanding system on AWS, owning the full pipeline from domain fine-tuning to Dockerized CI/CD deployment. Demonstrates strong production rigor—latency optimization (distillation/quantization, async batching, autoscaling), orchestration with Airflow/Step Functions/Azure Data Factory, and monitoring/drift detection—plus experience translating ops stakeholder needs into adopted AI automation via dashboards.”

“Associate Director in commercial technology leading Salesforce platform delivery (Sales Cloud + Health Cloud) for patient engagement and order management. Personally led secure integrations like Bartender Cloud label/barcode generation (PDF creation, encryption, malware scanning) and owned a major StreamSets-based Salesforce data sync incident triggered by a Salesforce region move, adding proactive monitoring and automated DR/failover. Experienced in scaling delivery via CI/CD, release cadence, and leading teams through architecture reviews, code reviews, and lead-to-cash automation.”

“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.”

Mid-level Machine Learning Engineer specializing in LLMs and RAG for healthcare

Remote, USA2y exp

“AI Engineer (Medtronic) who deployed a production RAG-based clinical assistant grounded in curated biomedical literature (no patient-identifiable data). Deep hands-on experience orchestrating and hardening LLM workflows with LangChain/LangGraph, including stateful agentic flows, rigorous testing, and evaluation; reports a 72% accuracy improvement through retrieval enhancements (query rewriting, multi-query expansion, MMR reranking).”

Mid-level Software Engineer specializing in AI agents, data pipelines, and cloud systems

Sunnyvale, CA5y exp

“Generalist software engineer with recent contract work at Vertex Pharmaceuticals shipping a desktop-integrated RAG assistant for lab scientists (2000+ pages ingested; ~40% support-ticket reduction in pilot). Previously owned Python/AWS financial automation services at Amazon operating at multi-billion-dollar scale, with strong strengths in API design, observability, and database/performance tuning; also built a React/TypeScript AI contract analysis product (ContractsGuy).”

“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.”

Mid-level Software Engineer specializing in backend and distributed systems

Murray Hill, NJ5y exp

“Backend engineer who has owned large-scale systems from design through rollout, including a Dell rearchitecture that unified two regional platforms and delivered major latency gains while scaling the effort from 6 to 150 contributors. Also built an ESG analysis product in an ambiguous startup environment using AWS Lambda, Bedrock/Claude, Flask, and custom data pipelines, showing a blend of distributed systems depth and practical AI integration.”

“Engineering leader focused on multi-cloud platform modernization, combining deep hands-on expertise in Kubernetes, Terraform, GitOps, and DevSecOps with management of 18-person DevOps/SRE/software teams. Particularly strong in building secure, scalable enterprise SaaS infrastructure and Spark/Databricks data platforms while driving cross-functional standardization, reliability, and faster release cycles.”
