Mid-level Generative AI Engineer specializing in enterprise LLM and healthcare AI solutions

O Fallon, MO6y exp

“Built and owned an end-to-end LLM-powered fraud investigation assistant that automated case summaries and risk analysis, cutting analyst investigation/documentation time by 40%. Stands out for translating RAG concepts into a production-grade internal platform with strong evaluation, monitoring, and reusable Python service architecture that improved both analyst trust and engineering velocity.”

“Built and owned a production conversational AI platform for a healthcare contact center, including RAG-based agent assist, hybrid retrieval, safety guardrails, and production monitoring. Stands out for combining LLM product delivery with strong operational rigor, driving a reported 25-30% improvement in handling time in a sensitive healthcare environment.”

“ML engineer with production experience at PayPal and Flipkart, owning high-scale systems across fraud detection, recommendations, and LLM tooling. Stands out for combining strong modeling judgment with practical platform engineering, delivering measurable impact like 22% fewer fraud false positives, 18% CTR lift, 40% less LLM manual review, and 30% faster redeployments.”

“Backend/ML systems engineer with Stripe payments experience who built an asynchronous processing upgrade handling millions of API requests, cutting peak latency ~20–25% while preserving strict financial consistency via idempotency-safe retries and robust validation/fallbacks. Also built scalable ETL pipelines for messy CSV/Excel/API data with strong observability (structured logging/monitoring) and reliability mechanisms.”

Mid-level Machine Learning Engineer specializing in computer vision and LLM pipelines

4y exp

“ML/LLM engineer who built production systems to speed up artist content-creation workflows, including a fine-tuned image captioning model paired with a RAG layer over image embeddings/captions to improve consistency across changing domains. Experienced orchestrating multi-tool agents with LangChain/LangGraph (planning + critic/reflection) and setting up practical monitoring (caption rejection rate) plus evaluation sets for tool-calling accuracy, output quality, and latency.”

“Built and shipped production LLM agents that automate document processing and decision workflows, with a strong focus on reliability, guardrails, and measurable business impact. Stands out for combining RAG, tool calling, evals/monitoring, and ERP integration to deliver 30-35% manual effort reduction and higher throughput without additional headcount.”

“GenAI/LLM engineer who architected and deployed a production RAG “research assistant” for JPMorgan Chase’s regulatory compliance team, focused on safety-critical behavior (mandatory citations, refusal when evidence is missing). Deep hands-on experience with LlamaIndex, Pinecone, Hugging Face embeddings, LangGraph agent workflows, and metric-driven evaluation (golden sets, TruLens), including a reported 28% relevancy lift via cross-encoder re-ranking.”

“Applied ML/LLM engineer currently building AppleCare’s production chat recommender, owning the full lifecycle from transcript cleaning and fine-tuning through distributed deployment, monitoring, and iterative improvement. Their work delivered >10% copy-count improvement, 5% lower modification rate, 60% cost reduction, and $1.1M profitability in 2025, and they also created a reasoning-data generation approach that enabled a reasoning model and a judge model that cut eval time by over 99%.”

“Built and deployed a production LLM/RAG fraud investigation system to replace manual investigator workflows, combining transaction data, historical cases, and policy documents with agent-style steps and LoRA fine-tuning. Demonstrates strong reliability engineering (grounding, citations, abstention paths), performance optimization (retrieval/indexing/caching), and end-to-end MLOps orchestration using Azure ML Pipelines/MLflow plus Kubernetes/Argo with canary and rollback deployments.”

“AI/ML engineer (Cognizant) who built a production, real-time credit card fraud detection platform combining deep-learning anomaly detection with an LLM-based explanation layer. Strong focus on regulated deployment: addressed class imbalance and feature drift, and added guardrails (SHAP/structured inputs, fine-tuning on analyst reports, rule-based validation) to keep explanations accurate and compliant. Orchestrated the full pipeline with Airflow + Databricks/Spark and used MLflow/Prometheus plus A/B and shadow deployments for measurable reliability.”

“ML/LLM engineer who has shipped a production transformer-based document understanding system on AWS, owning the full pipeline from domain fine-tuning to Dockerized CI/CD deployment. Demonstrates strong production rigor—latency optimization (distillation/quantization, async batching, autoscaling), orchestration with Airflow/Step Functions/Azure Data Factory, and monitoring/drift detection—plus experience translating ops stakeholder needs into adopted AI automation via dashboards.”

Mid-level Data Scientist/Data Engineer specializing in ML pipelines, insurance and healthcare analytics

Los Angeles, CA7y exp

“Built a production assistive-vision iPhone app to help visually impaired users find grocery items, training a custom YOLO detector on 2,000+ self-collected/annotated images and deploying via CoreML with a cloud multimodal LLM for navigation instructions. Brings hands-on AWS serverless + ECS container deployment (CDK/GitHub Actions) and a disciplined approach to AI workflow reliability (state-machine design, offline evals, stress tests, logging/metrics), plus experience communicating model insights to non-technical stakeholders (MOTER Technologies).”

“ML/AI engineer with strong end-to-end production ownership across predictive ML and Generative AI use cases. They built a churn prediction platform that cut churn 12% and preserved about $1.2M in annual revenue, and also shipped a RAG-based support assistant that reduced ticket resolution time 30% while improving agent satisfaction and onboarding speed.”

Mid AI/ML Engineer specializing in MLOps and cloud platforms

Texas, USA3y exp

“ML/AI engineer with strong end-to-end production ownership across classical ML and GenAI systems. Built and deployed predictive analytics and RAG-based internal tools on AWS/Kubernetes with measurable impact on accuracy, latency, deployment speed, safety, and user productivity.”

“ML/AI engineer with hands-on ownership of both classical ML and GenAI systems in production. They built an end-to-end churn prediction service on AWS and also shipped RAG-based document search/summarization features, with clear experience in monitoring, hallucination reduction, cost/latency optimization, and creating shared Python/LLM infrastructure used across teams.”
