“Full-stack engineer who built an AI-based inventory/procurement query system at Botlily/Botlerly using Flask and Google Sheets as a live knowledge base, overcoming Sheets latency with caching and structured in-memory models. Demonstrated strong LLM product engineering (40% accuracy improvement via preprocessing/prompting) and customer-driven iteration with bar/restaurant owners, evolving the tool into a more comprehensive inventory management and forecasting solution.”

“At Trellis, built and shipped a production multi-agent, authenticated GenAI chatbot for sensitive financial account inquiries (loan/payment lookups), using dynamic model routing to control latency and cost while improving accuracy. Implemented prompt-injection defenses (Meta Prompt Guard), RAG with LangChain, and LLM-as-a-judge evaluation; the system cut manual support call volume by 40%+ and was refined through close collaboration with QA-driven user testing.”

“Built a production Apple-focused LLM Q&A bot that answers user issues using similar past discussion records, including large-scale scraping and cleaning of thousands of forum threads. Used BeautifulSoup + Playwright for static/dynamic extraction, PySpark + NLP for preprocessing, and LangChain RAG with a custom response-likeliness metric to evaluate performance.”

“Built and deployed a transformer-based clinical document classification system that processes unstructured clinical notes in a HIPAA-compliant healthcare setting, served via FastAPI on AWS and integrated into an Airflow/S3 pipeline. Demonstrates strong end-to-end MLOps skills (data quality remediation, low-latency inference optimization, monitoring with MLflow/CloudWatch) and effective collaboration with clinicians to drive adoption.”

“Built and deployed an LLM-to-SQL automation system in a closed/internal environment, using a retriever–reranker–validator architecture on Kubernetes with strong security controls (semantic + rule-based validation and RBAC), achieving 99% uptime and cutting manual query time ~40%. Also worked on genomic sequence classification and semantic search workflows, orchestrating data prep with Airflow, tracking/deploying with MLflow, and optimizing distributed multi-GPU training on a university Kubernetes cluster.”

“Backend/Python engineer focused on real-time sensor/IoT analytics: built dashboards and a high-throughput ingestion pipeline (MQTT -> Python worker -> TimescaleDB) with buffering, batch inserts, and validation. Strong Kubernetes + GitOps practitioner (Dockerized microservices, HPA, probes, ArgoCD) who has handled production incidents like CrashLoopBackOff under peak load and supported an on-prem analytics migration to AWS using shadow traffic and rollback plans.”

“At Provenbase, built and shipped a production LLM-powered semantic search and candidate matching platform (RAG with GPT-4/Gemini, multi-agent orchestration, Elasticsearch vector search) to scale sourcing across 10M+ candidate records and 1000+ data sources. Drove sub-second performance, cut LLM spend 30% with routing/caching, and improved recruiting outcomes (+45% sourcing accuracy; +38% visibility of underrepresented talent) through bias-aware ranking and tight collaboration with recruiting stakeholders.”

“Built and productionized a RAG-based semantic search system for video-derived data, focusing on measurable success metrics (p95 latency, reliability, cost/request) and strong observability (prompt versions, retrieved docs, tool calls, token usage). Experienced in diagnosing real-time issues in LLM/agentic workflows and in supporting go-to-market efforts through tailored technical demos, rapid POCs, and post-close onboarding.”

“Backend/data engineer who built a production analytics data service (Python/FastAPI on AWS/Postgres with PySpark ETL) handling millions of records per day and drove major latency improvements (10–15s to <2s) via indexing, Redis caching, and shifting aggregations into ETL. Also shipped an LLM-based natural-language-to-SQL assistant end-to-end with strong guardrails (schema restrictions, read-only validation, RBAC, masking) and designed a multi-step agent workflow with verification and fallback logic.”

“Built and productionized a domain-specific LLM-powered RAG knowledge assistant at JerseyStem for answering questions over large internal document corpora, owning the full stack from FAISS retrieval and LoRA/QLoRA fine-tuning to AWS autoscaling GPU deployment. Drove measurable gains (28% accuracy lift, 25% latency reduction) and improved reliability through hybrid retrieval, grounded decoding, preference-model reranking, and Airflow-orchestrated pipelines (35% faster runtime), while partnering closely with non-technical stakeholders to define success metrics and ensure adoption.”

“Full-stack engineer who built a checklist configuration/task execution system using Next.js App Router + TypeScript, with a React Native app consuming the execution UI via WebView. Was the only full-stack developer at a very small startup (CTO/CFO/CEO team), owning feature delivery plus client-facing on-call debugging, and has hands-on Postgres modeling and query optimization experience.”

“Junior web developer turned applied AI builder who has shipped both user-facing web UX improvements (Vue.js + Drupal/Twig) and production LLM systems. Built a Google Cloud-hosted Llama/Ollama RAG customer-service chatbot with citation-based guardrails and a metrics-driven eval loop, and also delivered a large-scale Python pipeline analyzing 14M Amazon consumer reviews for flavor-trend detection.”

“Built and owned a production RAG search/Q&A platform at Data Integrity First for a client with a large, hard-to-search document library, deployed on AWS. Drove major adoption gains by adding source attribution (users trusted answers more) and improved system performance with guardrails, logging, and iterative chunking/OCR normalization—cutting fallback rate from ~22% to under 10%.”
