Senior Backend Engineer specializing in GenAI, LLMs, and scalable data pipelines

Chicago, IL12y exp

“Backend/ML platform engineer from Snapsheet who owned production Python services and data pipelines for insurance claims, including an AI document classification/summarization FastAPI service on ECS/Fargate processing 1M+ documents/year. Strong in AWS infrastructure (Terraform, CI/CD, secrets/IAM, autoscaling), Glue/PySpark ETL with schema evolution controls, and legacy SAS-to-microservices modernization with safe, feature-flagged rollouts and measurable performance wins.”

“Senior, product-focused engineer who has built real-time customer-facing web applications and a microservices backend (TypeScript/React/Node) using RabbitMQ, MongoDB, and Redis. Demonstrates strong operational maturity (idempotency, tracing/observability, backpressure) and built an internal console that became the primary tool for debugging, replaying jobs, and managing system behavior.”

“LLMOps-focused technical leader who took an LLM use case from prototype to production for a non-technical customer by combining trust-building and structured enablement with a robust AWS/Kubernetes-based MLOps stack. Built observability and rollback mechanisms (Grafana + MLflow) to troubleshoot in real time, and scaled delivery by hiring a 5-person team while partnering with sales to manage expectations and drive adoption across departments.”

“Player-coach engineering leader focused on scalable data security scanning and risk detection in hybrid cloud, owning architecture and core implementation of an incremental/parallel DSPM scanning engine. Shipped production improvements including 60% lower scan latency and 30% fewer false positives, with strong emphasis on correctness under concurrency, multi-tenant observability (SLOs/burn-rate alerts), and disciplined rollout practices (feature flags, shadow scans, canaries).”

Senior AI/ML Data Scientist specializing in recommender systems, LLMs, and MLOps

Tracy, CA11y exp

“ML/NLP leader with 12+ years of impact across LinkedIn, TikTok, and Levi's, building and productionizing multimodal recommendation and embedding-based search systems. Deep experience in entity resolution, vector retrieval, and rigorous evaluation, with cloud-native deployment/monitoring (MLflow, Airflow, SageMaker/Lambda, Azure ML, Kubernetes) and demonstrated double-digit relevance gains at millions-of-users scale.”

Pavithra Kollu

Screened

Mid-level Machine Learning Engineer specializing in LLMs, RAG, and search systems

San Francisco, CA5y exp

“Backend/ML infrastructure engineer with experience at Perplexity and Meta building production evaluation, monitoring, and retrieval systems for AI search, autonomous agents, and LLM-powered workflows. Particularly strong in turning messy manual quality-review processes into reusable Python/FastAPI automation with measurable impact, including major gains in search relevance, latency, and grounded answer quality.”

“AI/LLM engineer with production experience at NVIDIA and Microsoft, including building a RAG-based enterprise knowledge assistant that improved accuracy by 42% and scaled to thousands of queries. Deep in inference optimization (TensorRT-LLM, Triton, quantization, speculative decoding) and MLOps/observability (Prometheus/Grafana, MLflow, LangSmith), plus orchestration with Kubeflow/Airflow across multi-cloud.”

Vinay Ramrupe

Screened

Mid-level AI/ML Engineer specializing in LLM and enterprise generative AI

San Francisco, CA5y exp

“ML/AI engineer focused on taking LLM systems from experimentation to reliable production, including enterprise copilot and RAG-based knowledge retrieval use cases. Stands out for combining data pipelines, model training, inference optimization, automated evaluation, and safety guardrails, with cited impact including 20% throughput gains and 30% less manual evaluation effort.”
