“Built a production ad-spend optimization system that combined deterministic audit logic with LLM-generated explanations, surfacing severe inefficiencies including 70-90% wasted spend in some Google Ads accounts. Stands out for pairing measurable business impact with pragmatic AI safety and usability decisions, including approval-gated execution and structured, human-readable recommendations.”

“Built and shipped a real-time AI robotic inspection system, using a synthetic data generation pipeline to address rare edge cases—cutting data collection costs ~60% and boosting hard-scenario accuracy ~20%. Experienced in productionizing ML on constrained Jetson hardware and orchestrating end-to-end ML workflows with Airflow/Docker/Kubernetes, with a metrics-driven approach to reliability, evaluation, and stakeholder communication.”

“Backend/cloud engineer from Resilient Tech with hands-on experience deploying REST APIs and database migrations into a live ERP used by real customers while maintaining 99% uptime. Has debugged intermittent AWS container timeouts down to security group/load balancer misconfigurations, and has extended Python in an ERPNext system to meet GST/e-invoicing compliance requirements with strong customer collaboration.”

“Built and deployed a production generative-AI copilot at Tungsten that automates invoice/form extraction template creation, reducing weeks of manual model-building work. Combines fine-tuned LLMs (PyTorch/HuggingFace) with OpenCV layout grounding to reduce hallucinations, and runs an end-to-end Kubeflow-based MLOps pipeline with drift monitoring, canary releases, and automated retraining.”

“LLM engineer who has deployed a production RAG system (LangChain/FAISS/FastAPI) for enterprise semantic search, tackling real-world latency by LoRA/PEFT fine-tuning and grounding outputs with retrieval. Brings strong MLOps (Docker, AWS EKS, CI/CD, MLflow) plus stakeholder-facing explainability experience using SHAP to align ML-driven financial guidance with non-technical domain experts.”

Junior Machine Learning & Backend Engineer specializing in LLM systems and ML infrastructure

Boulder, CO1y exp

“Built and deployed production RAG-based document search/Q&A systems (DocChat and an internship marketing RAG), using a React + FastAPI stack on GCP with docs stored in GCP buckets and retrieval via embeddings/vector DB. Emphasizes cost/performance tradeoffs (reported ~40% cost reduction) and ships via Docker (Railway), with load/API testing using JMeter and Swagger; regularly collaborates with a CEO stakeholder to iterate and push changes to production.”

“Sales professional at AutoSherpa who partners closely with product/engineering to resolve CRM data-sync issues affecting pipeline accuracy and sensitive customer data handling. Experienced running multiple customer onboardings in parallel using structured tracking (CRM/project boards), early risk logging, and weekly stakeholder syncs; targeting $100k base and open to equity.”

“Built and deployed production LLM applications including a natural-language-to-read-only-SQL system focused on ambiguity handling and query safety (schema whitelisting, intent validation, confidence checks, deterministic execution). Experienced with LangChain-based, modular agent orchestration and RAG document QA for large PDFs, with a metrics-driven testing/evaluation approach and cross-functional delivery with marketing on an AI content recommendation/search tool.”

“Built and deployed a production AI-powered personalized learning platform (Django + FastAPI) featuring an LLM+RAG tutoring assistant and automated grading. Demonstrates strong applied LLM reliability engineering (structured JSON outputs with Pydantic validation, hallucination control via FAISS-based RAG thresholds and refusals) plus scalable async microservice design and Airflow-orchestrated ETL across AWS/GCP.”

“Master’s capstone at Stevens: conceptualized and helped build a cross-platform assistive mobile app for visually impaired users with currency detection (ML), voice-driven AI chatbot (OpenRouter), and a guided navigation video-call feature using a shared room code. Personally implemented Firebase login/sign-in, facial-recognition login, video calling, chatbot integration, and led integration/testing across the full app.”

Senior Data Scientist & Machine Learning Engineer specializing in computer vision and production ML

Cleveland, OH7y exp

“PhD in computer engineering who has built production-oriented ML/NLP systems for space-weather prediction using Spark-based ETL on noisy satellite sensor logs. Strong in entity resolution and semantic search—fine-tuned E5 embeddings with contrastive learning and deployed to Pinecone, improving top-5 retrieval precision by 25%—and emphasizes scalable, observable pipelines with Airflow, Docker, and CI/CD.”

Principal/GenAI Engineer specializing in LLMs, RAG, and MLOps

Plano, TX9y exp

“Built a production AI-powered university marking system that automates question generation and grading from PDF course materials using a RAG pipeline (S3 + Pinecone) orchestrated with LangChain/LangGraph and deployed on AWS ECS via Docker/ECR and GitHub Actions CI/CD. Addressed a key real-world LLM challenge—grading consistency—by implementing rubric-based scoring, retrieval re-ranking, and standardized context summarization, validated against human instructors.”
