Vetted Generative AI Professionals

“Candidate brings an operator-to-founder profile with leadership experience in IT and Business Systems and a strong grasp of how ideas become venture-backable products. They speak fluently about startup evaluation criteria such as TAM, technical defensibility, speed to scale, and AI differentiation, and appear especially motivated by building solutions end-to-end in startup or venture studio environments.”

“Product leader with a strong track record of modernizing legacy SaaS platforms, including an API-first rebuild that increased engagement by 40% and reduced support burden. Also led AI-powered workflow automation that delivered 80-90% time savings through human-in-the-loop design, showing a pragmatic, user-centered approach to applied AI.”

“Paid social creative lead with experience across major consumer brands (Duracell, Amazon Groceries, Puma) and Gen Z-focused retail, owning end-to-end creative strategy from concept/briefing and UGC direction through QA and delivery. Known for contextual, seasonally-timed campaigns and performance-driven iteration (CPA/ROAS, funnel drop-offs), including a Duracell Meta campaign that reached 20M+ views and sustained engagement gains via creator feedback loops.”

“Cloud-focused engineer experienced deploying and stabilizing complex production systems that span APIs, infrastructure, and automated workflows, with a strong observability and safe-release mindset (feature flags/canaries/rollbacks). Has hands-on, customer-facing incident leadership, including executing DR regional failover during an AWS us-east-1 outage to maintain service and reportedly save a client ~$10M.”

“LLM/agent workflow engineer with healthcare experience (CVS/CBS Health) who built and deployed a production call-insights platform using Azure OpenAI + LangChain/LangGraph, including sentiment and compliance checks. Demonstrates deep HIPAA/PHI handling (tenant-contained processing, redaction, RBAC/encryption/audit logging) and production rigor (testing, eval sets, validation/retries, autoscaling) to scale to thousands of transcripts.”

“Built and deployed a production Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) platform in a healthcare setting to automate clinical documentation review and summarization, targeting near-real-time, explainable outputs. Emphasizes grounded generation to reduce hallucinations, latency optimizations (chunking/embedding reuse), and PHI-safe workflows with access controls, plus strong orchestration experience using Apache Airflow.”

“Built a production GenAI-powered analytics assistant to reduce reliance on data analysts by enabling natural-language Q&A over Databricks/Power BI dashboards, backed by vector search (Pinecone/Milvus) and a Neo4j knowledge graph, including multimodal support via OpenAI Vision. Demonstrates strong real-world LLM reliability engineering with strict RAG, LangGraph multi-step verification, and Guardrails/custom validators, plus broad orchestration and production monitoring experience (Airflow, ADF, Step Functions, Kubernetes, Prometheus/CloudWatch).”

“ML/NLP practitioner with experience building an embedding-based ad matching and search system at Vericast (BERT embeddings + similarity search) to replace a third-party taxonomy approach, evaluated via a human-curated gold standard. Also built a custom NER pipeline at Allstate for auto accident claims calls using a bidirectional LSTM and achieved 90%+ F1, with a strong emphasis on production-grade ML workflows (testing, CI/CD, orchestration, versioning, validation).”

“字节跳动实习期间将内部AI重量预测模型从“可用但难上线”的单点能力，改造成可商业化复用的通用API：统一多地区接口与评估口径，设计分层兜底与置信度分级，先灰度上线SEA/JP并推动US/EU落地，结合线上结果进行模型微调。具备LLM/RAG/Agent系统的实战排障方法论，以及面向开发者与售前场景的技术演示与跨团队推进能力。”

“Insurance-tech CTO and repeat founder with 10+ years in insurance startups; was employee #4/CTO at Polly (formerly DealerPolicy) and helped scale it from a PowerPoint to 250 employees while raising $180M+. Currently building and selling AgentCanvas.ai—an extensible AI accelerator platform for large insurance agencies—after coding the product end-to-end and now running demos/POCs with prospective buyers.”

“AI engineer who built a production RAG-based internal analyst tool at BlackRock, fine-tuning an LLM on proprietary financial data and adding four layers of guardrails (input/retrieval/generation/output) to improve grounding and reduce hallucinations. Implemented a LangChain-based multi-agent orchestration (7 major agents) deployed on AWS ECS, with reliability measured via internal human evaluation, LLM-as-judge, and RLHF/drift monitoring.”

Chicago, IL0y exp

“AI/ML practitioner with experience spanning audio/LLM applications (built "Iota" using Whisper, tiktoken, and a local Ollama-served LLM) and healthcare ML (Facemed.ai; UChicago Radiology). Demonstrates a production-oriented mindset—focus on data/model fit, deterministic field testing, and operational safeguards—and has improved research evaluation workflows via a hash-table-based concurrent model tracking approach.”

Prateek Patil

Engineering Leader specializing in Digital Health, AI, and Cloud Platforms

Santa Clara, CA16y exp

“Senior Engineering Manager at Roche leading two Scrum teams building internally shared (“inner-sourced”) tools and libraries for a healthcare enterprise. Has led security/compliance-first architecture decisions (e.g., Python AI modules running inside a Java container) and front-end modularization (Angular monorepo to module federation), with a strong focus on developer experience via automated Swagger/OpenAPI documentation and robust testing/versioning practices.”

Mid-level AI/ML Engineer specializing in Generative AI, NLP, and Computer Vision

Grand Rapids, MI4y exp

“Built an LLM-powered learning assistant (EduQuizPro/EduCrest Pro) that uses RAG over URLs and PDFs to generate quizzes, notes, and explanations for students/professors. Emphasizes production robustness—implemented dependency fallbacks (FAISS/Sentence Transformers/Gradio), CLI-safe mode, and NumPy-based indexing—along with a custom orchestration layer to keep multi-step AI workflows reliable.”
