“LLM engineer who has shipped production AI systems, including an RFP requirements extraction platform (OpenAI o4-mini + Azure AI Search + FastAPI) achieving 90%+ accuracy and ~5x throughput through grounding, structured outputs, parallelization, and caching. Also partnered with legal/compliance stakeholders at Nexteer Automotive to deliver an AI document comparison tool with traceability and confidence indicators, adopted by non-technical users and saving ~2 FTEs of review time.”

“Backend engineer who built a Python-based data profiling/statistics platform processing up to 50M rows and ~300 metrics, using a DAG execution model, multithreading, and smart caching to cut processing time by up to 70%. Also improved PostgreSQL query performance from 12s to 2s via indexing/query rewrites, integrated an LLM (LangChain + OpenAI) for explainable “chat with the pipeline” functionality, and designed an AWS EC2+SQS architecture for scalable, isolated per-user processing.”

Senior Data Scientist / ML Engineer specializing in GenAI, LLMs, and NLP

Texarkana, TX10y exp

“ML/NLP engineer focused on production GenAI and data linking systems: built a large-scale RAG pipeline over millions of support docs using LangChain/Pinecone and added a LangGraph-based validation layer to cut hallucinations ~40%. Also built scalable PySpark entity resolution (95%+ accuracy) and fine-tuned Sentence-BERT embeddings with contrastive learning for ~30% relevance lift, with strong CI/CD and observability practices (OpenTelemetry, Prometheus/Grafana).”

Remote, USA4y exp

“Full-stack engineer (~3 years) with eBay production experience building and operating high-scale, event-driven Python microservices for order processing and AI-powered recommendations (Kafka/Redis/FastAPI on AWS with Prometheus/Grafana). Also delivered polished React+TypeScript analytics dashboards and designed high-concurrency PostgreSQL schemas with significant latency reductions. Recently built AI-agent orchestration and an interactive node-based requirements dashboard for Siemens Polarion via MCP servers, improving user interaction by ~17.8%+.”

“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.”

Executive Technology Leader (CIO/CTO/CDO) specializing in AI, cloud, and data strategy

Northbrook, IL20y exp

“Founder with an end-user-ready product who has self-funded/used angel investing but has not yet launched marketing in earnest. Motivated by identifying a market gap with a differentiated product and is now seeking value-add investors who can provide both capital and go-to-market expertise/connections.”

“Built production-grade Python systems in a medical/imaging context, including an image feature extraction and survival prediction microservice with strong testing, validation, and observability practices. Also developed a Playwright-based autonomous job application agent that handled dynamic UIs and anti-bot challenges with stealth tooling, proxies, and human-in-the-loop escalation.”

“Backend engineer who built and evolved an internal multi-agent AI research platform (Electron + FastAPI) integrating OpenAI, focused on fast, reproducible experimentation with strong observability and run metadata for debugging. Has led incremental backend refactors with feature flags and parallel validation, and brings production-grade access control expertise from ServiceNow (table/field ACLs and row-level-style enforcement).”

“Backend engineer with hands-on experience building Flask REST APIs (auth, CRUD, S3 media uploads) and driving measurable Postgres/SQLAlchemy performance gains (p95 reduced to 200–400ms by eliminating N+1s and switching to keyset pagination). Implemented multi-tenant isolation with strict tenant scoping plus Postgres RLS, and built an OpenAI-powered quiz generation pipeline using queued workers, structured JSON outputs, and Celery/Redis optimizations to stabilize high-throughput workloads.”

“Built a production LLM-powered RAG agent for healthcare/insurance operations that retrieves and summarizes patient medical documents with grounded citations, scaling to ~4.5M records. Addressed medical shorthand and terminology by fine-tuning ~120 lightweight DistilBERT models by specialty and validating entities against SNOMED/RxNorm, while using SHAP/LIME and human-in-the-loop review to make decisions explainable to stakeholders.”

Senior AI/ML Engineer specializing in Generative AI and agentic multi-agent systems

6y exp

“Built and shipped a production LLM-powered multi-agent RAG system to automate complex internal support workflows, integrating tool execution (SQL/APIs) with validation guardrails to reduce hallucinations. Optimized for real-world latency and cost via model routing, caching, and async parallel tool calls, and enforced reliability with CI-gated golden test sets derived from anonymized production queries.”

“Built Baioniq, an enterprise LLM platform for automating extraction from massive unstructured documents like contracts and insurance claims. They demonstrate unusually strong production depth in agentic AI—scaling to 100k+ requests/day, processing 1M+ claim documents, and improving extraction accuracy through rigorous RAG architecture, evaluation, and fallback design.”

“Built and launched a production self-healing MLOps agent that autonomously diagnosed and fixed model training failures on Kubernetes GPU infrastructure. Combines deep AI infrastructure knowledge with full-stack product ownership, and has delivered measurable impact including 35% less infrastructure waste, nearly 50% less troubleshooting time, and 60% lower LLM API costs.”

“Built AI-powered natural language search and summarization features for internal financial platforms at JPMorgan, with a strong focus on trust, compliance, auditability, and failure handling. Stands out for treating AI as one component in a larger enterprise system rather than a magic layer, and for combining hands-on LLM integration experience with thoughtful agent architecture and validation design.”

“Full-stack engineer with hands-on ownership of a customer-facing advanced performance metrics experience in the Amazon S3 console, spanning React UI, Python/Node services, Redshift/RDS data access, and AWS IaC/CI-CD with CloudWatch/Route53 operational readiness. Demonstrates strong production instincts around resilience (partial failures, multi-region inconsistencies), progressive rollouts/feature flags, and reliable ETL/integration patterns (idempotency, backfills, reconciliation).”

“Built and shipped open-source LLM/RAG systems, including a generative AI assistant grounded on ~30,000 scraped university web pages, improving response accuracy ~30% by moving from TF-IDF-only retrieval to a hybrid sentence-transformer approach with fallback controls. Also partnered with non-technical leadership at Securi.ai to deliver real-time predictive analytics dashboards (Elasticsearch + Jira/ServiceNow) that reduced project overhead by 18%.”

“LLM/agentic systems builder at Verizon who deployed a LangGraph-orchestrated multi-agent ticket-automation platform with RAG (FAISS) to replace brittle rule-based bots. Improved routing correctness by ~30–40%, hit ~300ms latency targets via model routing, and reduced ops workload by ~60% through tight iteration with non-technical stakeholders and strong testing/observability practices.”
