Junior Software Engineer specializing in full-stack development and applied ML

New York, NY2y exp

“Full-stack engineer with experience at Zoho and Amazon who has owned production systems end-to-end, including a monolith-to-microservices migration using Kafka and Cassandra that improved search latency ~25% and increased throughput without data loss. Also built a hackathon project (Buildwise) into a sold product for a construction company (AI-driven document compliance checks) and shipped an IoT-based parking availability MVP in 3 weeks.”

“Second most active contributor at Daice Labs, owning a production AI-powered software development collaboration platform’s end-to-end execution infrastructure (TypeScript/Next.js backend, Node.js CLI, shared libs). Built the full multi-agent pipeline (planning/codegen/summary), Supabase-backed context assembly and realtime state, Git/GitHub automation, and a provider-agnostic LLM abstraction with strict Zod validation and retries, backed by extensive tests and design specs.”

“ML/AI engineer with hands-on ownership of production document intelligence and GenAI systems, spanning model experimentation, AWS deployment, monitoring, and iterative optimization. Stands out for turning document-heavy workflows into reliable, near real-time products with measurable gains in accuracy, latency, and manual-effort reduction, while also shipping citation-grounded RAG features that drove user trust and adoption.”

Mid-level AI/ML Engineer specializing in LLMs, NLP, and real-time AI systems

New York, NY4y exp

“Backend engineer who built a real-time pipeline for recording, transcribing, and analyzing audio from 400+ news radio stations, scaling Whisper on an HPC cluster with 7 H100 GPUs. Has strong performance optimization experience (30% latency reduction via SQL/query design; 50% DB call reduction via Redis caching) and has implemented region-based data isolation and PII protections in a regulated environment (JP Morgan Chase).”

“Backend engineer from Palantir who built and productionized an enterprise LLM-based document intelligence/search platform, evolving it into a hybrid lexical+vector retrieval system. Emphasizes reliability and cost control via strict LLM gating, robust fallback paths, and evaluation frameworks (e.g., MMLU/BLEU), plus disciplined migration practices (feature flags, dual-writes, shadow reads) to ship changes safely at scale.”

“Applied Scientist with legal-tech experience who builds production LLM systems. Created and deployed Quibo AI, a LangGraph-based multi-agent pipeline that turns large markdown/Jupyter inputs into polished blogs and social posts, overcoming context limits via ChromaDB + HyDE RAG. Also built a large-scale iterative code-evolution workflow using multi-model orchestration (GPT/Claude/Gemini) with testing, debugging loops, and evaluation/observability practices.”

“Built and shipped production improvements to a Paylocity RAG-based AI assistant, redesigning retrieval into a hybrid HNSW + keyword pipeline and using tuned RRF to fuse rankings—cutting latency by ~2s and reducing token usage by ~5000. Previously spearheaded Apache Airflow integration across ETL pipelines at Acuity Knowledge Partners, creating reusable templates and automated triggers to reduce manual job monitoring.”
