Vetted NLTK Professionals

“Backend/ML engineer who has shipped high-scale real-time systems across e-commerce and healthcare: built a PharmEasy real-time recommendation engine for ~2M monthly users (cut feature latency 5 min→30 sec; +15% cross-sell) and architected a HIPAA-compliant multimodal clinical diagnostic workflow (DICOM+EHR) with XAI, MLOps (MLflow/Airflow/K8s), and drift/monitoring guardrails supporting 10k+ daily predictions.”

“AI/ML infrastructure-focused engineer who has built production RAG systems from scratch (Supabase/pgvector + OpenAI embeddings) and iterated using formal eval metrics to improve retrieval quality. Also debugged real-time audio issues in a LiveKit-based pipeline by correlating packet loss with VAD behavior, and has deep experience building brittle, customer-specific financial platform integrations in Python/Playwright (2FA, redirects, token refresh, rate limits).”

“LLM/ML engineer who has shipped an enterprise RAG-based Q&A system (LangChain/LlamaIndex, FAISS + Azure Cognitive Search, GPT-3.5/4 via OpenAI/Azure OpenAI) to production on Docker + Kubernetes/OpenShift, tackling hallucinations, retrieval quality, latency/cost, and RBAC/IAM security. Also partnered with operations leaders to turn manual reporting into an LLM-powered summarization and forecasting dashboard driven by real KPIs and iterative stakeholder feedback.”

“Built and deployed a production RAG-based document Q&A system on Azure OpenAI to help business teams search thousands of PDFs/Word files, using Qdrant vector search, MongoDB, and a Flask API. Demonstrates strong production engineering (streaming large-file ingestion, parallel preprocessing, monitoring/retries) plus systematic prompt/embedding/chunking experimentation to improve accuracy and reduce hallucinations, and has hands-on orchestration experience with ADF/Airflow/Databricks/Synapse.”

“Currently at Huntington Bank, built a production-grade RAG system that helps business/operations teams get grounded answers from large volumes of internal enterprise documents. Owns ingestion and FastAPI backend, tuned hybrid BM25+vector retrieval and chunking for relevance, and evaluates reliability with metrics and observability (LangSmith, CloudWatch, Prometheus/Grafana) while partnering closely with non-technical stakeholders.”

“Software engineer with experience across TCS, Rakuten, and USC who has owned production integrations and data pipelines end-to-end. Notably improved a trading platform payment flow by replacing fragile polling with a webhook-driven status system with robust fallbacks, and has shipped LLM-assisted design-to-webpage automation plus evaluation-driven prompt iteration (NYT Connections).”

Senior AI/ML Engineer specializing in Generative AI and RAG

California, null9y exp

“ML/NLP practitioner at Morf Health focused on unifying fragmented healthcare data by linking structured patient/encounter records with unstructured clinical notes. Has hands-on experience with transformer embeddings, vector databases, and domain fine-tuning, plus rigorous evaluation (precision/recall) and human-in-the-loop validation with clinical SMEs to make pipelines production-grade.”

Nikitha Kommidi

Screened

Mid-level AI/ML Engineer specializing in fraud detection, NLP, and MLOps

6y exp

“Built a production real-time fraud detection and customer-support automation platform at Citibank, tackling extreme class imbalance (reported ~1:5000) and strict latency constraints. Combines hands-on MLOps (Airflow, Kubernetes, MLflow; Snowflake/Spark/S3 integrations; CI/CD model promotion) with cross-functional delivery to Risk & Compliance focused on interpretability and reducing false positives.”
