Vetted Retrieval-Augmented Generation Professionals

“LLM/agentic-systems builder who has shipped production tools for investment research and procurement insights, including a company screener that processes thousands of conference-listed companies using FireCrawl + Google Search + Gemini. Demonstrates strong orchestration expertise (LangGraph multi-agent graphs), performance optimization (async/batching to sub-30s), and pragmatic reliability/evaluation practices with stakeholder-friendly UX (real-time cost tracking and model/parameter toggles).”

“Internship at BlueFoxLabs building and deploying an AI/ML RAG system for a biopharma client on top of LibreChat, including an AWS Textract ingestion pipeline and PGVector retrieval deployed to AWS EKS. Demonstrated production-minded scalability work by moving from a vertically scaled EC2 setup to a horizontally scaling Kubernetes/EKS deployment, using CI/CD to safely incorporate requirement changes like tabular document data.”

“Engineering leader who modernized and unified a fragmented product suite at Milestone via a multi-year cloud-native roadmap, delivering an MVP in three quarters and boosting team velocity by 40% through cross-functional squads. At Prometheum, led a trust-building hybrid architecture (AWS control plane + customer-hosted data plane) using Kubernetes to ensure sensitive enterprise data never left customer networks while remaining cloud-agnostic across providers.”

“ML/NLP practitioner and technical founder who built an AUP risk-scoring model at Bill.com using TF-IDF + SVD features with XGBoost, and previously created automated data-quality guardrails for a Global Equity Risk stacked ML model at Thomson Reuters. Recently built a RAG-based chatbot for PaymentJock’s Home Affordability Probability product using embeddings and a local vector database (FAISS/Chroma), improving answer quality through chunking rather than expensive fine-tuning.”

“Backend/data engineer from Oscar Health specializing in healthcare claims systems on AWS. Built HIPAA-compliant real-time services (FastAPI/Postgres/Kafka on EKS) and serverless ingestion pipelines, and led modernization of a legacy SAS claims pricing system to Python/Spark with rigorous parity validation. Demonstrated measurable impact with high uptime/low latency services and major Snowflake performance and cost reductions.”

“Built and shipped a production LLM-powered medical scribe that generates structured clinical visit summaries using RAG, strict JSON schemas, and post-generation validation to reduce hallucinations. Experienced in making LLM workflows deterministic and observable (structured logging/metrics/tracing) and in evaluation-driven iteration with metrics like schema pass rate and edit rate; collaborated closely with clinicians and policy stakeholders at Scale AI to drive adoption.”

“Built and shipped a real-time AI phone agent for small businesses that handles bookings/FAQs/messages using streaming ASR, an LLM with tool-calling, and TTS; deployed to production for multiple paying customers. Demonstrates strong applied LLM reliability practices (tool-first grounding, retrieval, hard-negative testing, and production monitoring) and experience orchestrating multi-step AI workflows with Airflow, Prefect, and AWS Step Functions.”

“Backend/AI engineer who built a production GPU-backed real-time inference API at Nvidia and debugged burst-induced tail latency, cutting P95 by ~29% through dynamic batching and backpressure. Also shipped an end-to-end RAG + agentic operational diagnostics assistant with strict tool controls, evidence citation, confidence gating, and strong production guardrails, plus demonstrated hands-on Postgres optimization (900ms to 40–60ms).”
