“Built and deployed a production long-form article summarization system using BART/T5/PEGASUS, tackling real-world constraints like token limits, latency/quality tradeoffs, and factual drift via chunking/merge logic and constrained decoding. Uses pragmatic Python-based pipeline orchestration (scheduled jobs, modular scripts, logging/retries) and iterates with stakeholder feedback to make outputs genuinely useful for content workflows.”

“Product-focused full-stack engineer (70/30 app vs infra) with Accenture experience and recent AI workflow work, shipping end-to-end systems from React/TypeScript UIs through FastAPI backends to Postgres. Built an AI-driven data extraction platform with async job APIs, strict schema validation, and strong observability, and has operated AWS ECS-based deployments with real incident mitigation (DB connection exhaustion/latency under traffic spikes).”

“Open-source contributor who improved React Query’s caching/subscription behavior to reduce unnecessary re-renders via debouncing and batched updates, validated with benchmarking and extensive tests. Also maintained a Flask extension and resolved production background-task hangs by tracing Redis connection handling issues, adding cleanup/retry logic and troubleshooting docs. In a fast-paced startup, owned the design of a Celery+Redis multi-queue background processing system with Prometheus-based observability.”

“Backend engineer with strong performance and security instincts: built a Flask API for readability metrics with clean, testable modular design; optimized SQLAlchemy/Postgres to eliminate N+1 issues (800ms to 120ms). Also implemented an LLM-powered natural-language travel search using Claude Sonnet + Amadeus with RAG and anti-exploitation safeguards, plus multi-tenant isolation via Postgres RLS and Redis caching that cut search latency from ~20s to ~4–5s while reducing storage costs.”

“Built an autonomous decision analytics LLM agent for end-to-end tabular binary classification, using RAG (FAISS) to retain context across multi-step queries. Deployed as a FastAPI service with production-style reliability features (schema-aware validation, fallbacks, retries, structured outputs) plus offline/online evaluation and monitoring to reduce analysis time and improve consistency versus stateless approaches.”
