Vetted Recommender Systems Professionals

“Built and deployed a production NLP sentiment analysis system at Piper Sandler to turn noisy, finance-specific customer feedback into scalable insights. Demonstrates strong end-to-end MLOps: fine-tuning BERT, improving label quality, monitoring for language drift, and automating retraining/deployment with Airflow and Docker (plus Kubeflow exposure).”

“Recent master’s graduate in robotics with applied experience across reinforcement learning and ROS 2 autonomy stacks. Built an RL-based drone vertiport traffic controller (PPO) focused on reward design and simulation integration, and has hands-on navigation work in ROS 2 including LiDAR preprocessing, SLAM/path planning, and stabilizing TurtleBot3 wall-following. Also brings deployment experience containerizing robotics nodes and scaling them with Kubernetes on AWS.”

“ML/NLP engineer focused on large-scale data linking for e-commerce-style catalogs and customer records, combining transformer embeddings (BERT/Sentence-BERT), NER, and FAISS-based vector search. Has delivered measurable lifts (e.g., +30% matching accuracy, Precision@10 62%→84%) and built production-grade, scalable pipelines in Airflow/PySpark with strong data quality and schema-drift handling.”

“Built and deployed a production LLM-powered demand and churn forecasting system for an e-commerce client, combining open-source LLMs (LLaMA/Mistral) and Sentence-BERT embeddings to generate business-friendly explanations of forecast drivers. Strong focus on data quality and model trust (validation, baselines, segmented monitoring) and production reliability via Airflow-orchestrated pipelines with readiness checks, retries, and ongoing drift/A-B testing.”

“AI/ML engineer who shipped a production blood-test report understanding and personalized supplement recommendation product, using a LangGraph multi-agent pipeline on AWS serverless with OCR via Bedrock and RAG over vetted clinical research. Also built end-to-end recommender system pipelines at ASANTe using Airflow (ingestion, embeddings/features, training, registry, batch scoring/monitoring) with KPI reporting to Tableau, with a strong focus on safety, evaluation, and measurable reliability.”

“AI automation builder who shipped an OpenAI-powered weekly "trending AI tools" WoW reporting system (65 categories) that reduced a 6–7 hour manual process to ~10 minutes at negligible API cost. Also building a RAG-based content creation prompt engine that turns PDFs into storyboards with fact-checking/traceback to source lines, plus experience with AWS deployment components (Lambda, ECR, App Runner, Bedrock, API Gateway) and GitHub Actions.”

“Product-minded software engineer who owned a Shopify POS app end-to-end at Swym, shipping an MVP and then scaling iteration speed with E2E automation and CI/CD—resulting in a Shopify Badge, Top-5 App Store ranking, and +40% new user acquisition. Also built an ESG insights tool using React/TypeScript + FastAPI with Snowflake and a RAG pipeline, plus microservices patterns (async jobs, queues, DLQs, autoscaling) and internal Metabase/SQL analytics dashboards.”

“AI Engineer at DXC Technology who has shipped production LLM/NLP systems on AWS (SageMaker, FastAPI) and optimized them for real-time latency and unpredictable traffic using quantization, batching, and autoscaling. Strong MLOps and monitoring discipline (MLflow, CloudWatch, SageMaker Model Monitor) and proven business impact—delivered models with 92% predictive accuracy and cut enterprise decision-making time by 30% through close collaboration with product managers.”

“Built and deployed production LLM systems for summarizing sensitive legal and financial documents, emphasizing GDPR-aligned privacy controls and scalable hybrid cloud architecture. Experienced with Kubernetes/Airflow orchestration and rigorous testing/monitoring practices, and has delivered measurable business impact (18% conversion lift) by translating AI outputs for non-technical marketing stakeholders.”

“At Liberty Mutual, built a production underwriting decision assistant combining LLM reasoning with quantitative models and strong auditability. Implemented a claims-based response verification pipeline that cut hallucinations from 18% to 3% and materially improved user trust/validation scores. Experienced orchestrating ML/LLM workflows end-to-end with Airflow, Kubeflow Pipelines, and Jenkins, including SLA-focused pipeline hardening.”

“Research assistant at St. Louis University who built and deployed a production document-intelligence RAG system (Python/TensorFlow, vector DB, FastAPI) on AWS, focusing on grounding to reduce hallucinations and latency optimization via caching/async/batching. Also developed a personalized recommendation system for the Frenzy social platform and partnered closely with product/UX to define metrics and iterate on hybrid recommenders and cold-start handling.”

“LLM engineer who has deployed a production system combining LLMs with causal inference (DoWhy) to enable counterfactual “what-if” analysis for experimental research, including a robust variable-mapping/validation layer to reduce hallucinations. Also partnered with non-technical operations leadership at Irriion Technologies to deliver an AI-assisted onboarding workflow that cut onboarding time by 50% and reduced manual errors by ~40%.”

“AI/LLM engineer with production experience building an LLM-powered investment recommendation system using RAG and chatbots, deployed via Docker/CI/CD and scaled on Kubernetes. Demonstrated measurable performance wins (sub-200ms latency) through QLoRA fine-tuning and TensorRT INT8/INT4 quantization, plus strong MLOps/orchestration background (Airflow ETL + scoring, MLflow monitoring) and stakeholder-facing delivery using demos and Tableau dashboards.”

“LLM/RAG practitioner who has taken a support-ticket triage automation system from prototype to production, building the full pipeline (fine-tuned models, FastAPI inference services, vector storage, monitoring) and delivering measurable impact (~40% reduction in triage time). Demonstrates strong operational troubleshooting of LLM/agentic workflows (observability-driven debugging, fixing agent routing/looping) and supports adoption through tailored demos and sales-aligned technical communication.”
