“Full-stack engineer who built a cloud storage app feature (file upload/management) with Next.js App Router + TypeScript and owned post-launch improvements. Also has internship experience building a geospatial AI chatbot: designed Postgres/PostGIS data models and optimized spatial queries, and implemented an LLM workflow orchestrated with LangChain/LangGraph plus a RAG pipeline grounded in OpenStreetMap data to reduce hallucinations.”

“Backend engineer (Marsh McLennan) who evolved a high-volume claims automation pipeline in Python, emphasizing thin APIs with background job processing, strong validation/retries, and production-grade observability. Experienced in secure FastAPI API design (centralized JWT/RBAC), multi-tenant Postgres/Supabase-style row-level security, and low-risk refactors using parallel runs and feature flags; targeting founding-engineer scope roles.”
