“ML/LLM engineer with production experience building a RAG-based LLM support assistant (FastAPI, Redis, Kafka) with multi-layer validation and human-in-the-loop feedback loops to improve accuracy over time. Has orchestration and MLOps depth using Airflow and Kubeflow on Kubernetes (autoscaling, alerting, monitoring) and delivered measurable ops impact (40% ticket efficiency improvement) by partnering closely with customer support teams.”

“NLP/ML engineer with hands-on healthcare and support-ticket text experience, building clinical-note structuring and semantic linking systems using spaCy, BERT clinical embeddings, and FAISS. Emphasizes production-grade delivery (Airflow/Databricks, PySpark, Docker, AWS/FastAPI/Lambda) and rigorous validation via clinician-labeled datasets, retrieval metrics, and user feedback.”

“ML/NLP practitioner with healthcare payer experience at HCSC, focused on connecting messy unstructured clinical notes to structured claims/provider data to improve fraud-analytics workflows. Has hands-on experience fine-tuning transformers in AWS SageMaker, building large-scale embedding search with FAISS, and implementing robust entity resolution using golden datasets, precision/recall calibration, and production monitoring for drift.”

Mid-level AI/ML Engineer specializing in fraud detection and Generative AI (RAG)

USA5y exp

“AI/ML engineer who has shipped production LLM and ML systems, including a RAG pipeline that ingested ~500k insurance/client documents to help adjusters answer questions faster and more consistently. Experienced in handling messy real-world document formats, tuning retrieval/chunking, and reducing latency via vector search optimization, precomputed embeddings, and caching. Also built orchestrated fraud-detection deployment workflows using AWS Step Functions and SageMaker, and partners closely with non-technical operations teams on NLP automation.”

“ML/AI engineer with hands-on ownership of fraud detection and investigator-assist systems, combining anomaly detection with RAG-based LLM summarization in production. Stands out for translating research ideas into reliable cloud-deployed workflows that improved precision to 92%, cut review time by 25-30%, and increased investigator throughput by roughly 30% while also building reusable Python infrastructure for team-wide velocity.”

“Built production AI agents that convert natural-language requests into structured workflows using LangChain, tool calling, and a Kafka/Kubernetes backend, with strong emphasis on tracing, validation, and self-correcting failure handling. Also drove a zero-to-one Research Day judging platform spanning React, Flask, RAG, and ILP-based assignment optimization for ~100 live posters, achieving 99% uptime and winning Best Web App.”
