Vetted Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) Professionals

“25+ year professional exploring entrepreneurship; previously helped develop corporate venture capital at Siemens and AVEVA and ran end-to-end diligence through deal close, with heavy technical diligence on pre-seed/pre-revenue companies. Interested in building an AI-enabled hard lending/origination approach to reduce decision-to-close time and scale in a large lending market, and prefers VC studio/EIR models with paid roles rather than equity-only arrangements.”

“Built a production LLM-powered root cause analysis agent for supply chain alerts that helped operations managers avoid manual dashboard investigation. Demonstrates unusually strong depth in agent reliability, orchestration, and observability, with concrete production practices like hallucination blocking, shadow testing on 500 cases, and data-driven improvements that raised user agreement to 94% while cutting GPT-4 usage by 60%.”
