Strong in production concerns (observability, token/cost tracking, model tradeoffs) and in bridging business + technical work, owning pre-sales pitching through delivery with an engineering management background focused on AI product management.”

“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).”

“Built and deployed a production Llama 3-based RAG document Q&A system using FAISS, addressing context-window limits through chunking and keeping retrieval accurate by regularly refreshing embeddings. Has hands-on orchestration experience with LangChain and LlamaIndex for multi-step LLM workflows (including memory management) and collaborates with non-technical teams (e.g., marketing) to deliver AI solutions like recommendation systems.”

“Consulting-style LLM practitioner who builds enterprise knowledge assistants using RAG and takes them from prototype to production with guardrails, evaluation, and full-stack observability. Experienced partnering with IT and customer-facing teams to demo solutions, build tailored prototypes, and drive adoption through API-based integration.”
