Mid-level Data Engineer specializing in AI, GenAI, and cloud data platforms

Seattle, WA4y exp

“Built production AI systems inside AWS finance/procurement, including an LLM-based supplier quote classification and price-vetting workflow that drove $5M in savings over 3 months. Combines GenAI evaluation expertise, internal platform design, and reusable Python data-quality tooling with strong cross-functional execution across finance, accounting, and hardware engineering.”

“Backend/data engineer focused on production ML/LLM systems: built a real-time FastAPI inference API on Kubernetes with strong reliability patterns (timeouts, idempotent retries, centralized error handling). Delivered AWS platforms using EKS + Lambda with GitHub Actions/Helm CI/CD and built Glue-based ETL from S3/Kafka into Snowflake with schema evolution and data-quality controls; also modernized legacy analytics/recommendation workflows into Python services with safe, feature-flagged cutovers.”

“ML/LLM engineer who has built and productionized a large multimodal LLM pipeline end-to-end—fine-tuning a 20B+ parameter model with distributed/FSDP training and deploying on Kubernetes via Triton for ~5x throughput. Strong focus on reliability and safety (monitoring with SHAP, guardrails, A/B testing) with reported ~22% relevance lift and reduced harmful/incorrect outputs, plus experience orchestrating ETL/retraining workflows with Airflow across S3/Snowflake/RDS.”

“Built and deployed a production LLM-powered clinical support assistant at BJC HealthCare (RAG + transformer) to answer patient questions, summarize clinical notes, and support appointment workflows. Implemented PHI-safe data pipelines (Spark/Hadoop/Kafka) with automated scrubbing, dataset versioning, and audit logs, and runs the system on Docker/Kubernetes with Pinecone vector search while partnering closely with clinical operations staff.”

“Founder/idea lead behind InvantX, an AI-powered product helping people make better decisions with their own data. Developed the business model canvas and MVP plan, set up an early customer feedback loop, and iterates roadmap/architecture based on beta-user learning. Has participated in accelerators including FinAccelerate, Pegasus, and an NVIDIA program (AWS credits), and applies a metrics-driven, structured approach to traction building.”

“Senior data/AI and platform leader with Walmart- and T-Mobile-scale architecture experience, including building real-time inventory + forecasting platforms (Kafka/Cassandra/Hadoop) and Azure IoT systems. Known for translating board-level business goals into roadmaps that deliver measurable impact (e.g., $50M savings and $250M profit in a year; +2% conversion via Customer 360) and for hands-on problem solving in ML/forecasting (feature reduction and LASSO).”

“AI/LLM engineer who built and productionized an internal RAG-based knowledge system that ingests diverse sources (PDFs, Markdown, Slack), scaled retrieval with distributed FAISS and parallel ingestion, and reduced hallucinations via re-ranking, grounding prompts, and post-generation validation. Also has hands-on orchestration experience with Airflow and Kubernetes for reliable ETL/model pipelines, monitoring, and staged rollouts; reports ~15% accuracy improvement and adoption as the primary internal knowledge tool.”

“Built and deployed a healthcare NLP application that used an LLM-style physician interface feeding a random forest model to predict treatment plans for hard-to-triage patient subgroups, backed by a Databricks medallion pipeline and heavy feature engineering to address missing/low-integrity data across ~50K patients. Also delivered an earlier Microsoft AI Builder automation that improved transportation bill payment workflows by training non-technical payroll/procurement teams to use automated outstanding-payables reporting.”

Senior Generative AI Implementation Consultant specializing in RAG and agentic AI on cloud

Bay Area, CA3y exp

“LLM/RAG practitioner who built an AWS-based enterprise document search and summarization platform with RBAC and scaled it to 10K+ users, solving relevance issues via contextual chunking and hybrid retrieval. Also designed agentic workflows for a telecom forecast-validation use case using sub-agents, tool APIs, and strict context management, and has proven pre-sales influence (supported a $300K manufacturing deal with a roadmap-driven pitch).”

“Atlassian ML/AI engineer who has shipped end-to-end production systems combining classical ML, streaming infrastructure, and LLM-based personalization to improve onboarding and free-to-paid conversion. Particularly strong in turning research-style RAG and reranking ideas into low-latency, reliable product systems with robust evaluation, safety guardrails, and reusable platform services for other teams.”
