Laxminarayana Yaga

Screened

Mid-level AI/ML Engineer specializing in Generative AI, RAG, and MLOps

Missouri, USA4y exp

“Built and deployed a production RAG pipeline at PNC Financial Services to let risk/compliance analysts query millions of internal financial documents in natural language, reducing manual search and speeding regulatory validation. Demonstrates deep practical experience with large-scale document ingestion/OCR cleanup, retrieval performance tuning (hierarchical indexing, caching), and LLM reliability controls (grounding, citations, abstention), plus cloud orchestration on Azure and AWS.”

“AI/LLM engineer with healthcare domain experience who built a production clinical support “chart bot” for Molina, including PHI-safe ingestion of 200k+ PDF policies, vector retrieval, and a fine-tuned LLaMA served via vLLM on ECS Fargate. Demonstrated measurable performance wins (HNSW + namespace partitioning; 30% inference latency reduction) and a rigorous evaluation/monitoring approach, while partnering closely with nurses and operations teams to shape workflows and guardrails.”

“Built and deployed a production LLM-powered support assistant for customer support agents using a RAG architecture over internal docs and past tickets, with human-in-the-loop review. Demonstrates strong applied LLM engineering focused on real-world constraints (hallucinations, latency, cost) using routing to smaller models, reranking, caching, and rigorous evaluation/monitoring (offline eval sets, A/B tests, KPI tracking).”

“ML engineer/data scientist who built and deployed a real-time fraud detection platform at Citi on AWS SageMaker, processing 3M+ daily transactions and improving fraud response by 28%. Combines unsupervised anomaly detection (autoencoders) with ensemble models (XGBoost/Random Forest) plus Airflow/Step Functions orchestration, drift monitoring, and explainability (SHAP) to keep models reliable and compliant in production.”

“NLP/ML engineer with hands-on healthcare and support-ticket text experience, building clinical-note structuring and semantic linking systems using spaCy, BERT clinical embeddings, and FAISS. Emphasizes production-grade delivery (Airflow/Databricks, PySpark, Docker, AWS/FastAPI/Lambda) and rigorous validation via clinician-labeled datasets, retrieval metrics, and user feedback.”

“ML engineer/data scientist who deployed a production credit risk + insurance claims triage platform at Hartford Financial, combining XGBoost default prediction with BERT-based document classification. Demonstrated strong MLOps by cutting inference latency to sub-500ms and building drift monitoring plus automated retraining/deployment pipelines (MLflow, CloudWatch, GitHub Actions, SageMaker) with human-in-the-loop review and SHAP-based explainability for underwriting adoption.”

Yogita Adari

Screened

Mid-level AI Engineer specializing in generative AI, multimodal evaluation, and agentic RAG systems

San Francisco, USA4y exp

“Built and productionized an agentic LLM automation system for an insurance client to determine medication eligibility, using prompt-chaining plus a RAG pipeline over policy rules and deploying on AWS (Lambda/Step Functions, Bedrock) with a serverless architecture. Addressed major data/schema mismatch issues via a semantic matching pipeline and validated performance through human agreement scoring, A/B testing, KPI monitoring, and confidence-based human-in-the-loop review.”

Teja Babu Mandaloju

Screened

Mid-level Data Scientist/MLOps Engineer specializing in NLP, GenAI, and cloud ML platforms

Chicago, USA5y exp

“AI/ML engineer who led production deployment of a multimodal (text/video/image) RAG system on GCP using Gemini 2.5 + Vertex AI Vector Search, scaling to 10M+ documents with sub-second latency and +40% retrieval accuracy. Strong MLOps/orchestration background (Kubernetes, CI/CD, Airflow, MLflow) with proven impact on reliability (75% fewer incidents) and deployment speed (92% faster), plus experience delivering explainable ML (XGBoost + SHAP + Tableau) to non-technical retail stakeholders.”

Rajeshwar Peri

Screened

Mid-level Data Analyst specializing in healthcare and financial analytics

Chicago, IL5y exp

“Healthcare analytics candidate with hands-on experience turning messy claims and CRM data into validated reporting tables, automating monthly reporting in Python/Airflow, and operationalizing churn metrics in SQL and Tableau. They appear especially strong in stakeholder-aligned metric design and delivered a reported ~10% churn reduction through cohort analysis, segmentation, and at-risk member targeting.”

Rohan Chodapunedi

Screened

Entry-level Data Scientist specializing in LLMs and analytics

Folsom, CA1y exp

“Built a zero-to-one AI contract/policy QA agent for compliance and data teams, with a strong emphasis on trust, traceability, and clause-level citations rather than just fluent answers. They combine full-stack product ownership with practical LLM systems design, including hybrid retrieval, structured outputs, and evaluation pipelines to improve reliability, latency, and cost.”
