Virginia, USA6y exp

“Full-stack/AI engineer with experience spanning supply-chain product deployments, biomedical agentic search, and research-grade RAG evaluation. Stands out for owning customer-facing migrations at scale (including 216,000 historical shipments), building measurable LLM systems, and pairing AI experimentation with rigorous evals, rollout controls, and auditability.”

“Built an agentic medical coding system at Optum that combined LangGraph, LangChain RAG, Azure OpenAI, pgvector, and TypeScript to automate routine clinical coding while escalating risky cases to humans. The system automated about 40% of routine cases at roughly 92% accuracy, with strong production evals and observability using MLflow, Ragas, and DeepEval.”

“Backend/platform engineer from Dune Security with strong experience turning messy, fragmented workflows into reusable production systems. They’ve built a shared database abstraction layer, integrated multiple enterprise security platforms into a unified workflow, and shipped AWS Bedrock-powered security insight features with guardrails and human review.”

“Built and shipped an internal Financial Insights Assistant for banking analysts, owning the experience from workflow design through React frontend, FastAPI backend, and AI search integration. Particularly strong in making AI products usable and trustworthy by surfacing sources, experts, suggested prompts, and search history to improve confidence and speed.”

Junior Software Engineer specializing in AI, LLM systems, and full-stack development

San Jose, CA3y exp

“AI/full-stack engineer who built a computer-usage agent end to end, including a split local/cloud architecture that used a vision LLM to drive real Chrome workflows while avoiding bot detection. Stands out for combining product-minded systems design, rigorous evals, and prompt iteration to achieve sub-2-second latency and a 20% reduction in automation failures in an early-stage environment.”

“Built and shipped an AI-powered support assistant at PNC Bank, owning both the React/TypeScript frontend and Python/FastAPI + LangChain/OpenAI backend. Stands out for applying RAG in a regulated banking environment with measurable impact: 34% better knowledge retrieval accuracy and 27% faster support lookup time.”

“Data/analytics-focused engineer who builds end-to-end KPI reporting and validation products used daily by plant leads and leadership to track yield, downtime, and defects. Combines Python/SQL + Power BI data pipelines with strong data-quality practices (automated validation, monitoring/alerts) and has experience designing scalable frontend architecture in TypeScript/React and working in distributed/microservices-style data systems.”

“Runs two lean real estate companies remotely by building local on-the-ground contact networks and leveraging free-tier technology to keep total annual business costs under $100. Brings a cost-elimination and MVP/validation-first mindset, preferring to join an established company unless a clearly viable business idea emerges.”

“Backend engineer who built an NL-to-SQL system at Target, using a multi-step LLM pipeline with vector-store schema retrieval and SQL validation to safely answer business questions. Strong in production FastAPI systems (async, Pydantic, Docker/Uvicorn, load balancing) and security (OAuth2/JWT, scopes, and database row-level security), with experience migrating Flask apps to FastAPI + PostgreSQL using strangler/feature-flagged canary rollouts.”

“Backend/data engineer with hands-on production experience across GCP and AWS: built FastAPI microservices on Cloud Run and delivered AWS Lambda + ECS Fargate systems with Terraform/GitHub Actions. Strong in data engineering (Glue/Spark, S3/Redshift) and modernization (SAS to Python/SQL), with proven reliability and incident ownership—including cutting a 20+ minute reporting query to under 2 minutes.”

“Built a personal product, Pilly AI—an AI-powered e-commerce product Q&A widget embedded via a simple script tag and served via Cloudflare CDN—covering landing page, backend, database, and deployment end-to-end. Implemented OpenAI integration with prompt/context engineering, JWT-authenticated APIs, and Postgres (NeonDB), and successfully sold the product to a client while shipping in roughly two weeks.”

“AI/LLM engineer who built a production autonomous GenAI content ecosystem that generates short-form scripts, extracts viral highlights from long-form video, and dubs content into 33+ languages. Focused on making LLM outputs production-safe via schema enforcement, token-to-time alignment, critic-agent verification, and scalable async orchestration—cutting manual workflows by ~90% and saving $200k+ annually.”

“Backend/data engineer with production experience building secure Django/DRF APIs (JWT RS256 + rotating refresh tokens), background processing with Celery, and strong reliability practices (timeouts, retries/backoff, structured logging, audit trails). Has delivered AWS solutions spanning Lambda + ECS with IaC/CI-CD and built Glue/PySpark ETL pipelines with schema evolution and data-quality quarantine patterns; also modernized a legacy SAS pipeline to Python/PySpark with parallel-run parity validation and phased rollout.”

“Built and deployed a production long-form article summarization system using BART/T5/PEGASUS, tackling real-world constraints like token limits, latency/quality tradeoffs, and factual drift via chunking/merge logic and constrained decoding. Uses pragmatic Python-based pipeline orchestration (scheduled jobs, modular scripts, logging/retries) and iterates with stakeholder feedback to make outputs genuinely useful for content workflows.”

“LLM/ML platform engineer with hands-on experience taking an LLM document summarization prototype into a production-grade service on AWS EKS, emphasizing low-latency inference, drift monitoring, and safe CI/CD rollouts (canary + rollback). Strong in real-time debugging of agentic/RAG systems (tracing, retrieval/index drift fixes) and in developer enablement through practical workshops (Docker/Kubernetes/FastAPI) plus pre-sales support via demos and benchmarks to close pilots.”

“ML practitioner with hands-on experience adapting diffusion models (DDPM + U-Net in PyTorch) to improve low-dose CT medical imaging quality via denoising and upsampling against high-dose ground truth. Also built a RAG workflow during a recent internship by cleaning client survey data, embedding with OpenAI text-embedding-3-large, and indexing in Pinecone with MD5 deduplication, alongside a strong emphasis on production-grade Python practices.”

“At HPE, led and deployed an enterprise-grade LLM document intelligence platform for an insurance client, automating extraction from highly variable PDFs/scans/emails and raising field accuracy from 74% to 93%. Built a LangChain/Pinecone/OpenSearch RAG framework to cut hallucinations by 37% and operationalized LangSmith evals in CI, driving a 41% triage accuracy lift and >33% fewer incorrect resolutions while partnering closely with claims operations via HITL workflows.”

“Healthcare data/ML practitioner with experience at UnitedHealth Group building production ETL and streaming pipelines (Python, BigQuery, Kafka) that unify EHR, IoT device, and lab data for patient risk prediction. Also implemented embedding-based semantic search/linking for noisy clinical notes via domain adaptation and rigorous validation with clinical stakeholders; previously built churn prediction at DirecTV using XGBoost.”

“Built and shipped LLM/RAG systems in finance and startup settings, including a Goldman Sachs document intelligence platform that indexed ~8TB of regulatory filings and delivered cited, conversational answers with <2s latency—cutting compliance research by ~4.5 hours per batch.
