Vetted Model Deployment Professionals

“Built and deployed a production LLM-powered calorie-counting chatbot that turns plain-English meal descriptions into normalized food entities, quantities, and calorie estimates using a hybrid transformer + rule-engine pipeline. Emphasizes reliability with schema/constraint guardrails, confidence-based routing (including embedding similarity search fallbacks), and strong observability/metrics (hallucination rate, calibration, latency, cost). Partnered closely with nutritionists to encode domain standards into mappings and validation logic.”

“Master’s-in-Data-Science candidate (UHV) with 4+ years in AI engineering building production LLM and multimodal systems. Designed an LLM-powered workflow automation platform using RAG over vector stores with guardrails (schema/output validation, fallbacks) and a rigorous evaluation/monitoring framework including drift tracking and shadow deployments. Experienced orchestrating large-scale vision-language pipelines with Airflow and Kubernetes (OCR, distributed training) and partnering with non-technical ops stakeholders to cut cycle time and reduce errors.”

“Built and deployed a production LLM-powered clinical note summarization system used by care managers to speed review of 5–20 page unstructured medical records. Implemented safety-focused validation (prompt constraints, rule-based and section-level checks, human-in-the-loop) to reduce hallucinations while maintaining low latency and meeting privacy/regulatory constraints, integrating via APIs into existing clinical tools.”

“AI/LLM engineer with production experience building secure, scalable compliance-focused generative AI systems (GPT-3/4, BERT) including RAG over internal regulatory document bases. Has delivered end-to-end pipelines on AWS with PySpark/Airflow/Kubernetes/FastAPI, emphasizing privacy controls, monitoring, and iterative evaluation (A/B testing). Also partnered closely with bank compliance officers using prototypes to refine NLP summarization/classification and reduce document review time.”

“AI/ML engineer with production experience building a RAG-based internal analytics assistant (Databricks + ADF ingestion, Pinecone vector store, LangChain orchestration) deployed via Docker on AWS SageMaker with CI/CD and MLflow. Strong focus on real-world constraints—latency/cost optimization (LoRA ~60% compute reduction), hallucination control with citation grounding, and enterprise security/governance. Previously at Intuit, delivered an interpretable churn prediction system (PySpark/Databricks, Airflow/Azure ML) that improved retention targeting ~12%.”

“ML/LLM engineer at Charles Schwab who built a production loan-advisor chatbot integrated with internal knowledge and loan-calculator APIs, adding strict numeric validation to prevent rate hallucinations and optimizing context to control costs. Also runs ~40 Airflow DAGs orchestrating retraining/ETL/drift monitoring with an automated Snowflake→SageMaker→auto-deploy pipeline, and uses rigorous testing plus canary rollouts tied to business metrics and compliance constraints.”

“ML/NLP practitioner who built customer-feedback topic modeling (NMF + TF-IDF) to diagnose chatbot-to-agent handovers and drove product/ops changes that reduced operational costs by 20%. Also developed LSTM-based intent recognition using Word2Vec/GloVe embeddings for semantic linking, and deployed an LSTM autoencoder for fraud anomaly detection that cut false positives by 25% while capturing 15% more fraud in A/B testing.”

Chicago, IL6y exp

“Backend/Python engineer who owned an end-to-end FastAPI + AWS internal natural-language document Q&A system (Textract extraction, embeddings/vector DB, LLM integration) with strong focus on reliability and latency. Hands-on with Kubernetes + GitOps (Argo CD, Helm, rolling updates/auto-rollback) and built/optimized Kafka streaming pipelines using Prometheus/Grafana. Also supported a zero-downtime on-prem to cloud migration with parallel run and gradual traffic cutover.”

“Data/ML platform engineer with healthcare (Cigna) experience owning an end-to-end pipeline spanning Airflow + Debezium CDC ingestion, PySpark/SQL transformations, rigorous data quality gates, and feature-store/API serving for ML training and inference. Worked at 10+ TB scale and cites a ~30% latency reduction plus stronger reliability via idempotent design, monitoring, and backfill-safe reprocessing; also built pragmatic early-stage data pipelines at Frankenbuild Ventures.”

“Built and deployed an agentic RAG assistant in production to automate enterprise knowledge search and multi-step workflows with tool calling, tackling real-world issues like hallucinations, retrieval accuracy, and latency. Demonstrates strong LLMOps and orchestration depth (MLflow, Airflow, LangGraph/LangChain/LlamaIndex) plus a metrics-driven approach to agent testing/evaluation and cross-functional delivery with business stakeholders.”
