Vetted Predictive Modeling Professionals

“Data science professional who has built a production RAG-based LLM question-answering system ("Flash Query") to deliver fast, accurate answers over large document collections, focusing on retrieval quality and grounded responses. Also collaborates with non-technical retail/jewelry stakeholders to turn business questions into predictive models and dashboards for decision-making.”

“Built an LLM-driven MLOps agent at SBD Technologies that automated an EV-charging prediction workflow end-to-end, integrating with real-time Kafka/FastAPI systems supporting 120K+ chargers at 99.99% event delivery. Addressed frequent schema drift by implementing SQLAlchemy/Flyway validation (60% reduction in drift issues) and deployed as Kubernetes microservices with GitHub Actions CI/CD; also has Airflow-based ingestion/crawling experience into Snowflake and stakeholder-facing delivery via a Fleetcharge PWA.”

“LLM/agent systems builder who deployed a production hybrid router for immerso.ai that dynamically selects retrieval vs reasoning vs generative pathways, achieving an 82% factual-accuracy lift. Deep hands-on experience optimizing local Mistral 7B inference (4–5 bit GGUF quantization, KV-cache reuse) and building reliable RAG/agent workflows with LangChain/LangGraph/AutoGen across GCP Cloud Run and AWS (ECS/Lambda).”

“Engineering/CTO-style leader with hands-on architecture experience who has driven end-to-end modernization of a manual antiques auction operation—building centralized web-accessible data systems, digitizing historical records via OCR/freelancers, and defining profitability-focused KPIs with an eye toward predictive modeling. Emphasizes provider-agnostic, containerized SaaS architecture to avoid vendor lock-in and has experience scaling a small engineering team with ownership-based culture and lightweight processes.”

“Software engineer with experience spanning healthcare middleware (patient records + insurance integration) and an AI fantasy football product built with React/TypeScript, Firebase, API gateways, and pandas-based data pipelines. Has hands-on microservices scaling experience (latency mitigation, async migration, state-based redesign) and built an internal feature-toggle dashboard that improved demo efficiency and sales outcomes.”

“AI Researcher with production experience building a real-time computer-vision detection pipeline augmented by an LLM-based verification layer to cut false positives (~78%) and reach ~90% real-world accuracy. Also partners cross-functionally with Product/Sales/Marketing to shape AI feature prioritization and market positioning using analysis and interactive dashboards.”

“Procurement/sourcing professional at Brightmark owning end-to-end CAPEX sourcing for uptime-critical plant components, from RFQs and vendor onboarding through production tracking and delivery. Demonstrated measurable savings (10–12%), mitigated supplier credit and trade/duty risks (Incoterms/HS code/COO), and improved AP/vendor relationships by fixing PO/invoice scope and documentation issues using SAP, Asana, and eMaint.”

“Backend engineer (Encore) who led the evaluation and redesign of a high-volume, low-latency real-time retrieval/ranking and inference platform on AWS, shifting from tightly coupled services to a modular architecture for better fault isolation and independent scaling. Strong focus on production reliability, observability, and security (JWT/RBAC, multi-tenant scoping, Postgres/Supabase RLS), with disciplined migration playbooks (feature flags, shadow traffic, dual writes/reconciliation).”

“Backend engineer who has led redesigns and migrations for a real-time logistics platform, improving scalability and resilience while managing eventual consistency tradeoffs. Demonstrates strong distributed-systems rigor (idempotency, transactions, async queues, monitoring) and builds secure, versioned FastAPI APIs with JWT/OAuth2, RBAC, and database row-level security.”

“Robotics engineer focused on simulation, modeling, and control, with hands-on sim-to-real experience from a soft, foldable “grasshopper” robot where friction/contact physics and servo dynamics drove real-world performance gaps. Built a ROS 2 voice-operated TurtleBot system integrating YOLOv5 + stereo depth for object picking with an attached arm, and debugged AMCL/SLAM to cut localization error from 10–13 cm to ~5 cm. Currently developing a quadruped in MuJoCo with a 3-layer control stack (RL + MPC + PD) and an RL training pipeline in JAX ahead of hardware.”

“Built a production-style AI meeting summarization and action-item extraction system (Azure Speech-to-Text + transformer summarization/NER) exposed via a Flask REST API, with explicit guardrails to prevent hallucinated tasks. Strong focus on reliability: modular agent/workflow design, precision-first evaluation with human-validated golden notes, and practical orchestration patterns (tool-augmented agents; ready to scale into Airflow/LangGraph/Prefect).”

“Internship project building and deploying a LLaMA-based, RAG-enabled copilot inside a Professional Services Automation platform, enabling natural-language navigation, text-to-SQL reporting, and project/resource/budget insights across multiple modules. Addressed real production issues like context drift and vague queries with hybrid search, metadata enrichment, and an intent classification/rewriting layer, orchestrated via Apache Airflow—ultimately cutting PMO reporting time by 40%.”
