Vetted Natural Language Processing Professionals

“Built a voice-driven desktop assistant for users with mobility impairments, integrating Whisper and Google Gemini and adding voice-authentication via speaker embeddings for secure command execution. Has hands-on experience with AWS serverless/microservices patterns (Lambda, S3, CloudFront, CloudWatch) and CI/CD, plus built an internal MySQL-to-MongoDB migration tool used by the CTO and dev team with an emphasis on safe, low-impact data transformation.”

“ML/NLP engineer who has built production systems end-to-end: a real-time recommendation platform (100k+ profiles) using BERTopic-style clustering and a RAG-based news summarization/recommendation stack with ChromaDB. Strong focus on scaling and reliability (GPU batching, Redis caching, Kafka ingestion, Docker/Kubernetes, Prometheus/Grafana) and on maintaining model quality over time via drift monitoring and retraining triggers.”

“AI/LLM engineer who has shipped production RAG and agentic systems end-to-end (LangChain/FAISS, OpenAI+Gemini, FastAPI, Docker, Streamlit), focusing on retrieval quality and low-latency performance. Also partnered with a non-technical PM at deepNow to deliver a forecasting + summarization pipeline for daily market insights with iterative prototyping and a simple UI.”

“Robotics software contributor from Binghamton University’s drone research lab who built a Dockerized, multithreaded Python control stack integrating Crazyflie firmware for low-latency, real-time coordination of multiple drones. Hands-on with telemetry/command pipelines, profiling and control-loop optimization, and wireless comms using CrazyRadio PA.”

“LLM/RAG engineer at Connex AI who built and deployed a production healthcare agent to extract clinical insights from medical data/notes. Strong focus on real-world reliability—hallucination mitigation (citations, schema validation, confidence thresholds, rejection logic), custom LangChain orchestration (query rewriting, fallback paths), and production evaluation/observability—while collaborating closely with clinical SMEs to ensure clinical fit and time savings.”

“Built a university campus assistant chatbot (BabyJ/WWJ) using RAG and agentic routing with a FastAPI + React stack and JWT auth, focusing heavily on production concerns like latency and reliability. Uses techniques like speculative prefetching, smart intent routing, and rigorous eval/testing (golden sets, regression, edge cases) while collaborating closely with campus admin/advising teams to iterate based on real user feedback.”

“Backend/ML engineering candidate focused on fintech automation who architected a zero-to-one agentic/LLM-enabled system to reconcile messy financial documents and bank transactions, reporting ~40% operational efficiency gains. Experienced migrating monoliths to event-driven microservices with incremental rollout via reverse proxy, and implementing production-grade security (OAuth2/JWT, RBAC, Supabase RLS) plus resilience patterns (timeouts/retries under concurrency).”

“Internship-built full-stack systems spanning HR employee-record portals and internal data-quality dashboards (Flask + SQL + React), emphasizing data integrity and rapid MVP iteration. Also implemented Flask microservices with RabbitMQ for distributed task processing, addressing duplication/ordering issues with idempotency, durable queues, and correlation-ID logging; delivered quantified productivity gains for HR teams.”

“Master’s thesis focused on building and deploying a gait-based biometric authentication system using mobile accelerometer time-series data as an alternative to passwords/2FA. Emphasized real-world robustness by addressing sensor noise and variability (phone placement, walking speed, footwear) and improving safety using biometric metrics like FAR/FRR and EER, while collaborating closely with a non-ML thesis advisor.”

“Backend engineer who built and scaled a FastAPI-based backend for an AI-driven maintenance system automating vendor sourcing/bidding/communication. Emphasizes async, message-driven architecture with strong observability and state-machine-driven workflows, plus robust webhook/idempotency patterns to prevent duplicate/out-of-order events from causing bad bids or state changes.”
