“Internship project at Builder Market: built an end-to-end production multimodal LLM application that estimates renovation/replacement costs from appliance photos (CLIP embeddings) or text descriptions, combining fine-tuning with agentic RAG. Focused heavily on real-world performance constraints—latency and cost—using parallel agent workflows, model routing to smaller/open-source models, re-ranking, and retrieval chunking, and collaborated closely with CEO/co-founders to deliver the solution.”

“Customer-facing software engineer who rapidly turns business requirements into Figma prototypes and PoC applications, using workflow prioritization and frequent client reviews to stay aligned. Has hands-on experience integrating with existing authentication/user APIs, building MongoDB-backed caching, and implementing robust fallback/retry mechanisms. Comfortable working on-site with customers and resolving production issues in AWS (e.g., DNS/EC2 traffic routing) in collaboration with DevOps.”

“Built and deployed an AI agent to help patients navigate complex housing information by scraping and normalizing unstructured data across all 50 U.S. states, then layering a LangChain RAG system with MMR re-ranking to reduce hallucinations. Experienced in orchestrating multi-agent workflows (LangGraph/CrewAI) and production reliability practices (Pydantic-validated outputs, LLM-as-judge evals, tracing). Also delivered stakeholder-facing explainability via SHAP dashboards for a loan-approval predictive model at Welspot.”

“Built and shipped an AI-powered driver ranking/assignment system at AffirmoAI using LLM intent classification + RAG over pgvector/Postgres, served via FastAPI with a React UI that explains scores. Drove measurable improvements through optimization and iteration (latency down to <800ms, adoption 60%→90%+) and implemented rigorous eval loops with dispatcher ground truth plus cold-start handling for new drivers.”
