“Robotics engineer from UIUC’s Intelligent Motion Lab who led the perception stack for a humanoid robotic nurse, fusing camera/LiDAR/IMU on NVIDIA Jetson Orin for real-time localization and scene understanding across six robots. Deep expertise in ROS 2 and edge ML optimization (TensorRT, CUDA, zero-copy), delivering major latency/throughput gains (10 FPS to 22+ FPS) and building fault-tolerant pipelines with gRPC offloading and real-time reliability practices.”

“Research Extern at Google DeepMind and former AWS Software Development Engineer Intern with a strong focus on practical, trustworthy AI engineering. Built a multi-agent RAG system for personalized news headline generation using a fine-tuned Flan-T5 model, parallel critic agents, FAISS retrieval, and style embeddings, while also leading a 3-person team on the project.”

“Full-stack AI engineer who has built both document-intelligence products and agentic investigation systems end to end. At ControlRooms.AI, they helped ship a production-facing root cause investigation workflow for industrial operations using Neo4j, FastMCP, RAG, OCR/VLM inputs, and multiple LLMs, contributing to roughly a 10x reduction in manual investigation time. They stand out for designing explainable, traceable AI systems that surface evidence, uncertainty, and missing context rather than forcing overconfident answers.”

“LLM/RAG engineer who built a production-style multi-agent orchestrator for resume-to-recommendation workflows (PDF ingestion through screening and recommendations), emphasizing prompt tuning and strict JSON output contracts. Currently building a RAG application for an NGO using Airflow (DAGs + embeddings) and tackling messy, missing/imbalanced data; has hands-on retrieval stack experience (FAISS/HNSW, bge embeddings) and uses rigorous evaluation metrics for groundedness and hallucination control.”

“Built and deployed a production LLM-powered risk assistant for KPMG and Freddie Mac that lets analysts query a confidential Neo4j risk graph in natural language (no Cypher), turning multi-day analysis into minutes with traceable, cited answers. Implemented rigorous guardrails, deterministic verification, RBAC/security controls, and a full eval/observability stack, cutting query error rate by ~50% and iterating through weekly UAT with non-technical risk analysts.”

“Built and shipped a production LLM pipeline for nursing home Medicare reimbursement (PDF OCR + fact extraction + keyword RAG + QA) that reportedly increased payouts by ~$1K/month per patient. Strong in LLM ops/benchmarking (ground truth, LLM-as-judge, cost/I-O tracking) and pragmatic optimization—swapped retrieval approaches, fine-tuned a small model to cut OCR cost 90%, and migrated workloads to Azure/Temporal to scale nightly processing 10x.”

Entry-level AI/ML Software Engineer specializing in generative AI and computer vision

Pittsburgh, PA2y exp

“Built and owned a production RAG coding assistant at Magna International used by 200 engineers, with hands-on work across React/TypeScript, retrieval infrastructure, and Postgres observability. Also brings an unusual blend of product UX thinking from AR game onboarding work, showing strength in both technical systems reliability and user activation.”

“CMU IoT coursework project builder who implemented an end-to-end TinyML gesture recognition system on a Particle Photon + ADXL345, streaming data via MQTT/Node-RED to a real-time Node.js frontend and deploying a quantized logistic regression model on-device. Also explored multi-drone coordination, implementing leader-follower offset control and a pivot/arc turning strategy to avoid collisions, and brings practical Docker/Kubernetes plus CI/CD workflow experience from internships.”

“Built a production RAG-based natural-language-to-SQL system at Global Atlantic to replace slow, expensive manual analytics ticket workflows, focusing heavily on retrieval quality and measurable evaluation (200-question ground-truth set; recall@5 improved 0.65→0.78 via semantic chunking). Also built a custom MCP-style agent orchestrator for a personal project (arxiv-ai) to improve flexibility and Langfuse-aligned observability, and has hands-on experience with LangGraph, CrewAI, and n8n.”

“AI/LLM-focused engineer with hands-on experience building RAG pipelines, prompt engineering workflows, and multi-agent systems using tools like LangChain. Stands out for combining AI-assisted development with production-grade validation and for leading the architecture/orchestration of agent-based recommendation systems that improved response time, accuracy, and scalability.”

“Backend engineer who built gnocal, a ~150-line stateless Go service that turns on-chain event data into standards-compliant .ics calendar feeds consumable by Apple/Google Calendar, deployed on Fly.io. Also refactored MCTS into Monte Carlo Graph Search (Python-to-Rust) using deterministic tests and state canonicalization to handle transpositions, and implemented decentralized role-based ACLs in Gno for a smart-contract web hosting network (gno.land / All in Bits).”

“ML/LLM engineer with production experience building a multi-GPU LLM inference platform using TensorRT and vLLM, achieving ~40% p95 latency reduction through batching/KV caching, quantization, and CUDA/runtime tuning. Also has end-to-end orchestration experience (Kubernetes, Airflow) and has delivered real-time fraud detection systems at Accenture in close collaboration with non-technical risk and product stakeholders.”
