Demonstrated strong infra skills by deploying on Kubernetes with Helm/HPA and GitOps (ArgoCD), plus migrating from OpenAI to an on-prem Llama 3 stack (vLLM, quantization, shadow-mode testing) and adding real-time Kafka ingestion for patient vitals/anomaly alerts.”

“Built and deployed a production RAG-based multi-agent chatbot during an internship to help consultants answer client questions and guide users through new IT systems with step-by-step instructions. Demonstrates hands-on experience with LangGraph/LangChain/Google ADK, unstructured document parsing and chunking for RAG, and a reliability-first approach to agent workflows (metrics, fallbacks, human-in-the-loop, guardrails).”

“ML/LLM practitioner with production experience building a healthcare review sentiment pipeline (RateMDs) using Hugging Face Transformers plus a LangChain+FAISS RAG layer for interactive querying. Also led orchestration-driven optimization of Nike’s Fusion ETL pipeline, improving runtime efficiency by 20%, and has experience translating ML outputs into Tableau dashboards for non-technical healthcare stakeholders (e.g., readmission risk).”

“Engineering leader who has led 100+ engineers at Sainsbury’s Tech and previously scaled an org from 6 to 60+ at AND Digital. Drove a high-impact modernization of a pricing/decisioning platform serving 1,700 stores—moving from batch monolith to real-time Kafka-based event-driven microservices with MLOps, IaC (Terraform), and zero-trust—delivering £18m+ annual profit uplift and 10+ deploys/day.”

“Built an "AskMyVideo" system that turns YouTube videos into queryable knowledge graphs by transcribing audio (Whisper), chunking and embedding content, and enabling traceable answers back to exact timestamps. Strong in entity resolution (rules + fuzzy matching + TF-IDF/cosine with PR-curve thresholding) and modern retrieval stacks (FAISS, hybrid dense/sparse, domain fine-tuning with ~12% precision gain), with a production mindset using Airflow/Prefect, Docker/FastAPI, and LangSmith/Prometheus/Grafana observability.”

“At Citi, helped lead the productionization of an internal LLM-driven automation workflow into a production-ready developer platform, focusing on determinism/reproducibility, security, and cost controls. Implemented prompt versioning/registry, JSON schema validation, sanitization, and deep telemetry (including manual edit-distance) plus human-in-the-loop review and phased rollout—driving major SDLC efficiency gains (e.g., test script creation cut from ~1 week to ~1 day).”

“Senior data engineer with experience in both healthcare (CVS Health) and financial services (Bank of America), building large-scale Azure lakehouse pipelines (30+ EHR sources, ~5TB) and real-time streaming services (Event Hubs/Kafka) for patient vitals. Strong focus on reliability and data quality (Great Expectations, monitoring/alerting, schema drift automation), with measurable outcomes like 50% runtime reduction and 99%+ uptime for regulatory reporting pipelines.”

“Has experience in several VC-backed companies and is motivated by early-stage company building—especially the fast pace of early engineering and cross-functional "wearing many hats" as a startup grows. Some exposure to investors through prior roles, though has not fundraised directly; familiar with VC and has read about accelerators like Y Combinator.”
