Vetted Natural Language Processing Professionals

“LLM engineer who built a production-style educational questionnaire generation system (MCQs/fill-in-the-blanks/short answers) using Hugging Face models (BERT/T5) and implemented grounding, decoding tuning, and post-generation validation to control hallucinations and quality. Also developed a "tech care" assistant chatbot with a custom Python orchestration/router layer (intent classification, context management, multi-step flows) and a structured testing/evaluation approach including expert review and automated checks.”

“Built and launched “Language AI,” a Next.js/TypeScript app that clones a user’s voice (via ElevenLabs) to deliver language lessons in their own voice, using Supabase for auth/Postgres/storage and hosting backend on Render. Post-launch, identified ElevenLabs voice-clone limits after initial users and reworked the pipeline to store audio assets and delete clones to support more concurrent users; also added Google auth to improve adoption. Previously worked in a high-growth startup environment (Study Park) taking concepts from ideation to production.”
