Vetted Model Fine-tuning Professionals

“AI/LLM engineer with healthcare domain experience who built a production clinical support “chart bot” for Molina, including PHI-safe ingestion of 200k+ PDF policies, vector retrieval, and a fine-tuned LLaMA served via vLLM on ECS Fargate. Demonstrated measurable performance wins (HNSW + namespace partitioning; 30% inference latency reduction) and a rigorous evaluation/monitoring approach, while partnering closely with nurses and operations teams to shape workflows and guardrails.”

“Built a production AI-powered sales automation system that reads inbound product enquiry emails, extracts structured data, and routes decisions via a rules-based workflow integrated with a product database. Leverages Gemini structured outputs/schema plus option-based prompting and validation to keep responses reliable, and optimizes latency by breaking agent reasoning into smaller LLM calls; evaluates workflows with LangSmith and metrics like completion rate and accuracy.”

“Built and deployed an LLM-powered mental health therapy assistant at AppHealth that segments users by stress level and delivers personalized, non-medical guidance. Implemented healthcare-focused safety guardrails (secondary LLM output filtering) and a multi-agent router workflow validated via statistical tests and therapist review, then scaled training/inference on AWS (EC2/Lambda/DynamoDB) with Kubernetes.”

“Internship project at Builder Market: built an end-to-end production multimodal LLM application that estimates renovation/replacement costs from appliance photos (CLIP embeddings) or text descriptions, combining fine-tuning with agentic RAG. Focused heavily on real-world performance constraints—latency and cost—using parallel agent workflows, model routing to smaller/open-source models, re-ranking, and retrieval chunking, and collaborated closely with CEO/co-founders to deliver the solution.”

“Built and deployed a production RAG system for financial/compliance teams using GPT-4, Claude, and local models to retrieve and summarize thousands of internal documents with strong security controls (role-based retrieval, PII masking). Drove significant operational gains (30+ hours/week saved, ~35% productivity lift, ~45% faster responses) and orchestrated end-to-end ingestion/embedding/index refresh pipelines with Airflow, S3, and SageMaker while partnering closely with compliance stakeholders on auditability and traceability.”

“Built and deployed an AI agent to help patients navigate complex housing information by scraping and normalizing unstructured data across all 50 U.S. states, then layering a LangChain RAG system with MMR re-ranking to reduce hallucinations. Experienced in orchestrating multi-agent workflows (LangGraph/CrewAI) and production reliability practices (Pydantic-validated outputs, LLM-as-judge evals, tracing). Also delivered stakeholder-facing explainability via SHAP dashboards for a loan-approval predictive model at Welspot.”

“Robotics/perception engineer focused on production-grade, real-time systems—optimized self-supervised segmentation on Jetson Nano from ~6–10 FPS to ~20–25 FPS and scaled experimentation/deployment by unifying 15+ edge models in a modular PyTorch Lightning framework. Experienced integrating distributed LiDAR-camera fusion via gRPC/protobuf into mission planning, migrating ROS1→ROS2 Foxy for multi-drone perception, and adding Prometheus-based observability for long-running deployments.”
