“Built and deployed a production LLM-powered RAG knowledge system to unify operational/policy information across PDFs, wikis, and databases, emphasizing auditability and low-latency/cost performance. Improved answer relevance at scale by moving from pure vector search to hybrid retrieval with metadata filtering and reranking, and partnered closely with healthcare operations/compliance to define acceptance criteria and human-in-the-loop guardrails.”

“Candidate has hands-on experience at Cognizant building production-grade automation and integration solutions across Python ML services, Java microservices, Kafka, and Selenium-based UI testing. They stand out for a strong reliability mindset—covering failure modes, observability, flaky test hardening, and translating ambiguous payment-system business processes into resilient end-to-end automated workflows.”

“AI/ML engineer who led Impacter AI’s production deployment of a specialized outreach LLM (CharmedLLM) fine-tuned on GPT-4.1, cutting API costs ~40% while boosting outreach effectiveness ~60%. Built the supporting MLOps and data infrastructure (MLflow, Kubernetes, PySpark, Kafka) and has agentic AI experience from University of Dayton, using LangChain + RAG and vector search (Pinecone) to improve reliability and reduce hallucinations.”

“Built and deployed a production NLP sentiment analysis system at Piper Sandler to turn noisy, finance-specific customer feedback into scalable insights. Demonstrates strong end-to-end MLOps: fine-tuning BERT, improving label quality, monitoring for language drift, and automating retraining/deployment with Airflow and Docker (plus Kubeflow exposure).”

“Recent master’s graduate in robotics with applied experience across reinforcement learning and ROS 2 autonomy stacks. Built an RL-based drone vertiport traffic controller (PPO) focused on reward design and simulation integration, and has hands-on navigation work in ROS 2 including LiDAR preprocessing, SLAM/path planning, and stabilizing TurtleBot3 wall-following. Also brings deployment experience containerizing robotics nodes and scaling them with Kubernetes on AWS.”

Junior Software Engineer specializing in backend systems, AI, and cloud infrastructure

Noida, India2y exp

“Built multiple AI-heavy systems with a strong engineering lens on observability, reliability, and real-world usability, including an LLM gateway for auditability/failure isolation and Allyvision, an accessibility tool for visually impaired users. Also owned an end-to-end warehouse shipment tracking dashboard at Addverb Technologies that drove measurable operational gains, combining backend/data depth with frontend product execution.”

“AI/LLM engineer who has shipped production systems end-to-end, including a note-taking product (Notey) combining audio/image capture, ASR, summarization, and a semantic chat agent over past notes. Also has applied ML experience in healthcare, collaborating directly with doctors to validate an EEG seizure-detection pipeline, and uses Kubernetes to optimize GPU usage for LLM training.”

“Robotics/AI engineer focused on multi-agent reinforcement learning for Crazyflie drones, enabling coordination via implicit motion-based communication and a stabilizing FSM layer; reported 98.5% sim and 92% real-world behavior-recognition accuracy. Also built a modular ROS 2 wall-following system (custom nodes/services/actions) and a Raspberry Pi + OpenCV stereo-vision walking robot, emphasizing rigorous logging, stress testing, and sim-to-real deployment.”

“Data scientist at Guardian Airwaves building a RAG-powered quiz generator using Grok AI, with hands-on experience solving hard document-ingestion problems (PDFs with images/tables) via unstructured.io and LlamaIndex. Has deployed production systems on AWS EC2 and brings a pragmatic approach to agent reliability (human-in-the-loop, LLM-based eval, latency/cost metrics) while effectively translating RAG concepts to non-technical stakeholders.”

“Built and shipped a production LLM-powered decision system that replaced a slow, inconsistent manual review process by turning messy text into structured, auditable outputs behind an API. Demonstrates strong end-to-end ownership of reliability and operations (schema validation, retries/fallbacks, latency/cost controls, monitoring for drift) and a disciplined approach to evaluation and regression testing. Experienced collaborating with non-technical reviewers to define success criteria and deliver interpretable outputs that get adopted.”

“End-to-end engineer focused on AI-native enterprise systems, including a production generative knowledge platform using RAG + semantic search over internal documentation (React, Python/Flask, GPU-hosted NLP models, Pinecone) with strong CI/CD and observability. Reports concrete outcomes including 40% faster knowledge access and ~75% employee adoption, and has led incremental cloud-native modernization using feature flags, parallel runs, canary releases, and regression testing.”
