Demonstrated measurable performance gains (latency down to ~120–150ms; Kafka throughput +30–40%; DB CPU -25%) and led an on-prem ETL-to-AWS migration using Terraform, parallel validation, and phased cutover with zero downtime.”

“At onedata, built and deployed an LLM-powered, multi-agent analytics platform on AWS Bedrock that lets users create Amazon QuickSight dashboards through natural-language conversation, cutting dashboard build time from ~30 minutes to ~5 minutes. Strong in production concerns (observability, token/cost tracking, model tradeoffs) and in bridging business + technical work, owning pre-sales pitching through delivery with an engineering management background focused on AI product management.”

“Full-stack engineer who built "Workstream AI," an AI-powered engineering visibility product that converts GitHub activity into real-time insights using an event-driven microservices stack (RabbitMQ/Postgres/Express) and GPT-4 with a React frontend. Previously a Founding SWE at a health & wellness startup, building data-driven user management tooling, and also delivered a real-time shuttle tracking/ride request system using Java Spring Boot/Hibernate + React; comfortable owning production deployment details (AWS EC2, DNS, SSL).”

“Built a production LLM-powered workflow at Frontier to extract structured signals from messy, high-volume documents and route work to the right teams, replacing a multi-day, error-prone manual process. Emphasizes production reliability with schema/consistency validation, re-prompting and deterministic fallbacks, plus async pipeline optimizations for predictable latency. Experienced with multi-agent orchestration (LangGraph, AutoGen, CrewAI) and AWS workflow tooling (Step Functions, SQS, Lambda), and delivered ~70% safe automation via stakeholder-driven thresholds and human review.”

“ML/NLP engineer with hands-on experience building production systems for unstructured insurance claims and customer data linking. Delivered measurable impact at scale (millions of documents), combining transformer-based NLP, vector search (FAISS/Pinecone), and human-in-the-loop validation, and has strong production workflow/observability practices (Airflow, AWS Batch, Grafana/Prometheus).”

“Infrastructure/Platform-focused engineering leader who led a large-scale AWS modernization, standardizing Terraform IaC and embedding security/policy validation into CI/CD to reduce drift and improve auditability.
