California, USA6y exp

“BlackRock AI/ML engineer who built and owned a production LLM document intelligence system for regulatory and investment analysis end-to-end. They combined RAG, multi-agent validation, strong evaluation/monitoring, and reusable Python services to process 50K+ documents, cut review time 40-50%, and improve decision accuracy by about 25%.”

“Early-career candidate with a thoughtful, engineering-first approach to AI-assisted development: they use AI to accelerate implementation while retaining human ownership of architecture and final code quality. They recently built a speech-to-text workflow using Groq Whisper and showed practical judgment by designing around imperfect transcription accuracy with checks and fallback handling.”

“Built and deployed a production LLM/RAG clinical decision support system that enables real-time semantic search over unstructured EHR notes and delivers patient risk insights. Strong in healthcare-grade MLOps and compliance (HIPAA, PHI handling, encryption, RBAC, audit logs) and scaled embedding/retrieval pipelines using Spark/Databricks and Airflow. Partnered with clinicians via Power BI dashboards and explainability, contributing to an 18% reduction in patient readmissions.”

“Built and deployed a production LLM-powered internal documentation assistant using embeddings, a vector database, and a RAG pipeline to reduce time spent searching PDFs/manuals. Experienced in orchestrating end-to-end LLM workflows with Airflow/LangChain, improving reliability via monitoring/error handling, and driving measurable quality through retrieval and hallucination-focused evaluation metrics.”

“Data/ML practitioner with experience applying NLP and classical ML to large-scale customer data (2B+ records) for segmentation, prediction, and survey-text classification, delivering measurable business impact (~18% engagement efficiency). Has hands-on entity resolution across multi-source datasets and has built embedding-based semantic search using SentenceBERT + a vector database with domain fine-tuning (~20% relevance improvement), plus production workflow experience with Spark/Airflow and cloud tooling (AWS/Azure).”

“AI/software engineer with experience at Visa building a real-time transaction fraud/risk scoring microservice in the card authorization path (Python, Kafka, Kubernetes on AWS) with strict 120–150ms latency constraints and reason-code outputs for downstream decisioning. Owns ML backend end-to-end (data/feature engineering, model training, deployment) and has demonstrated production reliability work including latency spike mitigation, SLO-based observability, drift monitoring, and safe fallbacks to rule-based decisions.”

Mid-level AI/ML Data Scientist specializing in NLP, computer vision, and risk analytics

Albany, NY5y exp

“ML/AI engineer with Capital One experience building production-grade customer segmentation and fraud detection systems combining NLP (transformers) and anomaly detection. Strong MLOps and orchestration background (PySpark ETL, MLflow, Airflow, Docker/Kubernetes, Azure ML) with real-time monitoring/alerting and performance optimizations like quantization and caching, plus proven ability to deliver business-facing insights through Power BI/Tableau for marketing stakeholders.”

“LLM/RAG practitioner who productionized an LLM-driven customer communication and transaction understanding system at PayPal, emphasizing privacy/compliance guardrails and large-scale data normalization. Experienced in real-time debugging of hallucinations via retrieval pipeline tuning and in leading hands-on developer workshops and sales-aligned POCs to drive adoption.”

Mid-level AI/ML Engineer specializing in cloud MLOps and production ML systems

Texas, USA4y exp

“AI/ML engineer at J.P. Morgan Chase who deployed a production financial-risk prediction platform combining CNN/LSTM/gradient boosting on AWS SageMaker, with automated drift-triggered retraining and governance-grade fairness testing. Leveraged SageMaker Clarify plus SMOTE and LLM-generated synthetic data to improve minority-group F1 by 0.12, and communicated results to non-technical risk/ops teams via Power BI dashboards.”

HEMANTH KUMAR KOTTAPALLI

Screened

Mid-level Machine Learning Engineer specializing in GPU-accelerated LLMs and MLOps

GA, USA4y exp

“Built and deployed a production LLM-powered decision-support system for supply-chain planners that explains demand forecast changes using grounded retrieval from sales, promotion, inventory, and supplier data. Implemented strict anti-hallucination guardrails and latency optimizations, deployed as a real-time AWS API with monitoring, and reported ~15% forecast accuracy improvement and ~12% supply-chain risk reduction. Experienced orchestrating data/ML/LLM workflows with Airflow, LangChain/LangGraph-style patterns, and AWS Step Functions while partnering closely with non-technical business users via demos and example-based requirements.”

Intern Software Engineer specializing in AI/ML infrastructure and applied machine learning

Palo Alto, CA2y exp

“Interned at Rivian where they built and deployed a production Whisper-based ASR + LLM real-time event labeling pipeline to help autonomous-vehicle engineers diagnose failures and route issues to triage teams. Also built a stateful multi-agent "Code Partner" developer assistant using LangGraph/LangChain (planner/router/coder/critique/tester) with evaluation, adversarial testing, and stakeholder-friendly communication practices.”

Sathvik Maridasana Nagaraj

Mid-level AI/ML & GenAI Engineer specializing in LLMs, RAG, and MLOps

5y exp

“LLM/agent engineer with production experience in healthcare claims automation, delivering large operational impact (cut case handling from ~8–10 minutes to ~3 minutes, ~2,000 staff hours saved/month at ~3,000 claims/month). Built resilient Azure-based deployments (Azure DevOps CI/CD, Docker/FastAPI, Redis caching, autoscaling, observability) and improved reliability via safety/evaluation frameworks that reduced hallucinations by 32%.”

“Backend/ML engineer who built and operated a production WhatsApp assistant end-to-end using a modern RAG stack, delivering >90% automation with sub-2-second latency. Shows strong depth in retrieval quality, observability, evaluation, and incident handling, and has also applied similar AI workflow patterns to a clinical diagnostic assistant processing medical PDFs.”

“ML/AI engineer with strong production depth across classical ML, MLOps, LLM/RAG, and scalable Python data platforms, with experience at Cisco and Accenture. Stands out for tying technical decisions to measurable business outcomes, including $1.2M annual savings, 40% faster support resolution, and broad internal adoption of shared engineering frameworks.”
