“Built a production GPT-4/LangChain/Pinecone RAG “AI Copilot” at Northern Trust to automate financial report generation and analyst Q&A over internal structured (SQL warehouse) and unstructured policy data. Focused on real-world production challenges—grounding and latency—achieving major speed gains (seconds to milliseconds) via MiniLM embedding optimization and Redis caching, and implemented rigorous testing/evaluation with MLflow-backed metrics while aligning compliance and finance stakeholders for deployment.”

“Built and deployed Clyra.AI, an AI-driven daily scheduling product that uses a LangGraph-based multi-agent LLM pipeline (task extraction, verification, reflection) grounded with strict RAG over emails/documents/calendars and real-world signals like health metrics. Designed a custom agent orchestrator with bounded loops/termination conditions and a self-auditing verification/reflection layer to reduce hallucinations while controlling latency and cost via caching and model distillation.”

“Built and shipped a production RAG question-answering system using LangChain/OpenAI, Docker, and FastAPI, then reduced hallucinations through disciplined retrieval tuning and constrained prompting. Also implemented a custom evaluation framework (QA-pair dataset) to measure faithfulness/relevance and deployed containerized ML microservices on AWS ECS/Fargate with ALB and rolling, zero-downtime updates.”

“ML/LLM engineer with production experience building medical RAG systems to automate chart review, including retrieval + re-ranking and rigorous evaluation.
