Vetted Unsupervised Learning Professionals

“Recent McCombs School of Business (UT Austin) Post Graduate Program graduate in Data Science & Business Analytics with hands-on project experience spanning stock clustering/segmentation and hotel booking-cancellation prediction. Strong in end-to-end analysis workflows (EDA, cleaning, feature engineering) and rigorous model comparison/selection, with exposure to boosting methods and imbalanced-data techniques; limited experience so far with embeddings/vector databases and production deployment.”

“Built and productionized an internal GenAI chatbot that makes company policy/SOP knowledge instantly searchable, using a secure RAG architecture on AWS (Bedrock/Titan embeddings/OpenSearch Serverless, Textract/Lambda/S3 ingestion, Claude 3 Sonnet). Demonstrates strong MLOps/orchestration experience (Airflow, Step Functions with Lambda/Glue/SageMaker) and a rigorous reliability approach (RAGAS metrics, A/B testing, citation validation, monitoring), including collaboration with compliance stakeholders via review dashboards.”

Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in Insurance, FinTech, and AI/ML applications

Dublin, CA17y exp

“AI/backend engineer who fine-tuned and deployed a production LLM chatbot using a LangChain + FAISS RAG pipeline, improving latency with PEFT/LoRA and driving strong business impact (40% customer adoption; 92% satisfaction). Also served as technical lead on a data aggregation system for underwriting/quoting, introducing GraphQL for more efficient, maintainable querying and applying CDC to keep cached ranking data fresh at scale.”

Mid-level AI/ML Engineer specializing in Generative AI, RAG, and MLOps

Missouri, USA4y exp

“Built and deployed a production RAG pipeline at PNC Financial Services to let risk/compliance analysts query millions of internal financial documents in natural language, reducing manual search and speeding regulatory validation. Demonstrates deep practical experience with large-scale document ingestion/OCR cleanup, retrieval performance tuning (hierarchical indexing, caching), and LLM reliability controls (grounding, citations, abstention), plus cloud orchestration on Azure and AWS.”

“Built a production AI-powered customer support Q&A system using an internal knowledge base to reduce repetitive ticket work and improve customer satisfaction, with an emphasis on source-backed answers and expert oversight. Also has experience defining deployment services in a microservices architecture and integrating large-scale APIs (including work connected to US HHS/COVID-19).”

“ML engineer/data scientist who built and deployed a real-time fraud detection platform at Citi on AWS SageMaker, processing 3M+ daily transactions and improving fraud response by 28%. Combines unsupervised anomaly detection (autoencoders) with ensemble models (XGBoost/Random Forest) plus Airflow/Step Functions orchestration, drift monitoring, and explainability (SHAP) to keep models reliable and compliant in production.”

“Built and deployed a production RAG system for financial/compliance teams using GPT-4, Claude, and local models to retrieve and summarize thousands of internal documents with strong security controls (role-based retrieval, PII masking). Drove significant operational gains (30+ hours/week saved, ~35% productivity lift, ~45% faster responses) and orchestrated end-to-end ingestion/embedding/index refresh pipelines with Airflow, S3, and SageMaker while partnering closely with compliance stakeholders on auditability and traceability.”

“Backend/ML platform engineer who owns end-to-end delivery of ML-serving APIs (FastAPI + TensorFlow) and runs them reliably on Kubernetes using ArgoCD GitOps. Has hands-on experience solving production-only issues (probe tuning for model warm-up, resource profiling) and building scalable Kafka streaming pipelines, plus supporting phased on-prem to AWS migrations with dependency discovery and recreation of hidden jobs/workflows.”

“Built and deployed an AI agent to help patients navigate complex housing information by scraping and normalizing unstructured data across all 50 U.S. states, then layering a LangChain RAG system with MMR re-ranking to reduce hallucinations. Experienced in orchestrating multi-agent workflows (LangGraph/CrewAI) and production reliability practices (Pydantic-validated outputs, LLM-as-judge evals, tracing). Also delivered stakeholder-facing explainability via SHAP dashboards for a loan-approval predictive model at Welspot.”

“ML engineer/data scientist who deployed a production credit risk + insurance claims triage platform at Hartford Financial, combining XGBoost default prediction with BERT-based document classification. Demonstrated strong MLOps by cutting inference latency to sub-500ms and building drift monitoring plus automated retraining/deployment pipelines (MLflow, CloudWatch, GitHub Actions, SageMaker) with human-in-the-loop review and SHAP-based explainability for underwriting adoption.”

“Built and deployed NeuroDoc, a production-grade RAG system for PDF Q&A that delivers citation-backed answers with strong anti-hallucination guardrails. Experienced in orchestrating and scaling ML/LLM pipelines with Kubernetes, Airflow/Prefect, and PyTorch Distributed, and in building rigorous evaluation and citation-verification tooling to ensure reliability in production.”

“ML/NLP engineer with hands-on experience building production systems for unstructured insurance claims and customer data linking. Delivered measurable impact at scale (millions of documents), combining transformer-based NLP, vector search (FAISS/Pinecone), and human-in-the-loop validation, and has strong production workflow/observability practices (Airflow, AWS Batch, Grafana/Prometheus).”
