“DevOps- and infrastructure-focused engineer who is already applying AI in practical delivery workflows, including Terraform, CI/CD, Kubernetes, and multi-agent automation. Stands out for combining AI-driven productivity with disciplined validation through testing, code review, and security checks, and for leading cross-functional AI integration across development, QA, and infrastructure.”

“Built an itinerary-planning startup MVP (LessGO) using React/TypeScript and a Node/Express backend integrating Google Maps and Gemini AI. Notably optimized Gemini latency from ~40 seconds to ~3 seconds through frontend caching, debugging, and model selection, and has TA experience supporting others with deployments and database connectivity.”

“Early-career engineer who built and launched a zero-to-one AI-driven approval workflow at SDSU that is used daily by roughly 2,000 university users. They owned the system end-to-end—from FastAPI/PostgreSQL backend to React UI—and showed strong judgment around LLM reliability, using a two-step pipeline, validation checks, and human-review fallbacks to cut manual processing time by about 80%.”

“Full-stack and AI product engineer who has shipped both operational SaaS and LLM-powered research tools to production. Built a dispatch optimization system at Quickflora that cut manual effort by ~50%, and also developed grounded RAG and agentic systems using tools like LlamaIndex, Gemini, pgvector, and FastAPI with a strong emphasis on citations, reliability, and practical user workflows.”

“Full-stack engineer with hands-on ownership of a production telemedicine dashboard at Cleveland Clinic, spanning React/TypeScript frontend, Spring Boot and Node.js backend services, and AWS/Kubernetes infrastructure.
