Brian Sanders
Senior Backend Engineer specializing in GenAI, LLMs, and scalable data pipelines
“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.”
Pavithra Kollu
Mid-level Machine Learning Engineer specializing in LLMs, RAG, and search systems
“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.”

Christopher Bun
Executive AI/ML technology leader specializing in healthcare, biotech, and legal AI
“Repeat founder and startup advisor with experience spanning academic, health tech, legal tech, sports, and gaming. Has participated in fundraising and due diligence and has built companies, engineering teams, and software platforms from scratch, with a strong product-design-first approach to product-market fit and market selection.”
Nishitha Thummala
Mid-level AI/ML Engineer specializing in LLMs, RAG, and scalable inference
“Backend/retrieval-focused engineer with production experience at Perplexity building a large-scale real-time Q&A system using retrieval-augmented generation, emphasizing low-latency, high-quality answers through ranking, context optimization, and caching. Also has orchestration experience from both product-facing LLM pipelines and large-scale infrastructure workflows at Meta, and has partnered with non-technical stakeholders to align AI trade-offs with business goals.”
Yuxin Xiong
Intern Machine Learning Engineer specializing in LLM reasoning, agents, and deployment
“AWS AI Lab engineer who deployed a production Chain-of-Thought analytical agent for tabular reasoning, emphasizing grounded tool-constrained workflows with schema-validated intermediate outputs. Built robust evaluation/logging with step-level observability to catch regressions across model versions, and has experience scaling distributed LLM training via Slurm + DeepSpeed/FSDP with checkpointing and failure recovery.”
Shuvam Mitra
Mid-level Data Scientist specializing in anomaly detection and production ML
“Interned at Backblaze building production AI systems for incident response and security operations, including an internal LLM-powered incident triage assistant that used Snowflake + RAG over historical tickets/postmortems and delivered results via Slack and a web UI. Emphasizes reliability (PII filtering, grounding, schema validation, fallbacks) and rigorous evaluation/observability (offline replay, partial rollouts, time-to-first-action metrics, Prometheus/Grafana).”
Krishna Sahith Poruri
Mid-level AI/ML Engineer specializing in LLMs, RAG, and MLOps
“ML/LLM engineer who built a production RAG system (GPT-4 + FAISS + FastAPI) to deliver fast, grounded answers from proprietary documents, optimizing for sub-200ms latency and high-concurrency scale. Strong MLOps/observability background: drift monitoring with Prometheus + Streamlit, automated retraining via Airflow, Kubernetes autoscaling, and MLflow-managed model lifecycle, plus inference cost reduction through quantization and structured pruning.”
kartik kanotra
Mid-level Software Developer specializing in cloud data engineering and MLOps
“Software engineer with strong AWS production experience, including an end-to-end historical backfill system exporting ~10PB of CloudWatch logs into a data lake using Step Functions/Kinesis/Lambda/Firehose/Glue. Emphasizes reliability and operability (DynamoDB checkpointing, monitoring dashboards, CI/CD with canary tests) and has also built customer-facing UI work for the Visa Developer Portal using Angular + Spring Boot, plus React/Redux frontend work.”
Jim Glassman
Executive Technology Leader specializing in Enterprise AI, Cloud Architecture, and Data Platforms
“Senior data/technology executive who stays hands-on: currently building a Go micro-kernel orchestration layer for medical AI agents to boost concurrency and enforce HIPAA/PHI controls, achieving 26x throughput on migrated workloads. Has led large-scale transformations across healthcare and financial services, including a 45-day data warehouse rebuild at Elara Caring and a data/ML roadmap at Acelity credited with $230M in annual revenue impact prior to 3M acquisition.”
