Junior Data/AI Engineer specializing in MLOps, real-time pipelines, and LLM applications

Portland, US2y exp

“Built an LLM-driven MLOps agent at SBD Technologies that automated an EV-charging prediction workflow end-to-end, integrating with real-time Kafka/FastAPI systems supporting 120K+ chargers at 99.99% event delivery. Addressed frequent schema drift by implementing SQLAlchemy/Flyway validation (60% reduction in drift issues) and deployed as Kubernetes microservices with GitHub Actions CI/CD; also has Airflow-based ingestion/crawling experience into Snowflake and stakeholder-facing delivery via a Fleetcharge PWA.”

Senior Software Engineer specializing in Applied AI and FinTech

San Jose, CA12y exp

“Backend engineer with experience building an end-to-end civic tech AI platform that ingests city council meeting videos, transcribes them with Whisper, and enables natural-language Q&A via a LangChain/FAISS RAG pipeline. Demonstrated strong systems thinking by tuning retrieval for accuracy/latency/memory (cutting response time ~3s→1s and memory ~500MB→25MB) and by safely migrating an ERP from monolith toward services using dual writes, reconciliation, and idempotency to protect financial workflows.”

Mid-level Full-Stack Engineer specializing in Golang and cloud-native FinTech systems

USA3y exp

“Backend-leaning full-stack engineer in fintech/payments who shipped an end-to-end Stripe payments + webhook system for a financial microservices platform, emphasizing ledger accuracy via idempotency, transactional writes, retries, and DLQs. Also delivered a real-time React/TypeScript payment status dashboard informed by user interviews, and improved production performance by 35% p95 latency through PostgreSQL tuning and Redis caching on AWS.”

“Backend Python engineer who owned the full backend build of an AI-driven platform for UK golf clubs, including FastAPI microservices, vector search, and a tuned LangChain+Pinecone RAG pipeline focused on cost and hallucination reduction. Experienced deploying Django/FastAPI/Flask stacks on AWS-backed Kubernetes with GitOps/ArgoCD-style delivery, plus executing legacy-to-AWS migrations and building Kafka-based real-time analytics pipelines.”

“Software engineer (internship experience) who built and owned an AWS serverless multi-user “challenge” feature end-to-end (UI + REST APIs + DynamoDB + deployment), delivering measurable gains in latency (-30%), debugging time (-50%), and join drop-offs (~-30%). Also productionized a multilingual RAG-based QA system with vector retrieval and guardrails, improving accuracy to ~85% and driving ~20% DAU growth.”

Entry-Level GenAI/LLM Engineer specializing in agentic systems and RAG

Baltimore, MD1y exp

“LLM/AI agent engineer with consulting/contract experience (Kanhaiya Consulting LLC) who deployed a production AI agent to automate BIM list workflows end-to-end—from database understanding and data cleaning to automated visualizations/dashboards. Worked around restricted real-time data access by generating synthetic data and improving outputs via supervised fine-tuning, and uses AWS-based LLMOps observability (Opic/OPEC) plus hybrid retrieval (vector+BM25 with reranking) to optimize relevance, latency, and cost.”

“Built AI-powered products across both healthcare and financial services, including a privacy-conscious assistant for elderly health check-ins and a production RAG system for high-stakes financial document analysis. Stands out for combining full-stack engineering with strong LLM reliability practices—grounding, structured outputs, fallback handling, monitoring, and human-in-the-loop controls—while delivering measurable impact on accuracy, speed, and system performance.”

“Built and owned an internal AI-powered knowledge assistant that centralized fragmented company knowledge across docs, tickets, and internal systems. They designed the backend, ingestion pipelines, vector search, RAG workflow, and APIs, then drove adoption through pilot testing and quality improvements—ultimately automating roughly 30% of support inquiries and cutting resolution time by about two hours per ticket.”

“Built production LLM/agent systems for procurement and contract spend controls, including a proactive contract value leakage detection platform that moved an organization from reactive audits to pre-payment rejection. Combines multi-agent orchestration (Semantic Kernel/LangChain/AutoGen), document AI benchmarking (Textract vs Azure DI), and MLOps/testing (MLflow, QTest/Pytest) with strong security practices (RAG-grounded responses to prevent prompt injection). Integrated anomaly alerts directly into SAP SES workflows and Power BI dashboards, citing ~$38M leakage addressed across large spend environments.”

“Built and deployed a production AI-powered personalized learning platform (Django + FastAPI) featuring an LLM+RAG tutoring assistant and automated grading. Demonstrates strong applied LLM reliability engineering (structured JSON outputs with Pydantic validation, hallucination control via FAISS-based RAG thresholds and refusals) plus scalable async microservice design and Airflow-orchestrated ETL across AWS/GCP.”

Mid-level Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in cloud-native apps and AI copilots

Dallas, TX4y exp

“Internship project building and deploying a LLaMA-based, RAG-enabled copilot inside a Professional Services Automation platform, enabling natural-language navigation, text-to-SQL reporting, and project/resource/budget insights across multiple modules. Addressed real production issues like context drift and vague queries with hybrid search, metadata enrichment, and an intent classification/rewriting layer, orchestrated via Apache Airflow—ultimately cutting PMO reporting time by 40%.”

Thota Rajkumar

Junior Cloud & AI Infrastructure Engineer specializing in Agentic AI and AWS

San Jose, CA2y exp

“Built and deployed a production AI career-advice agent designed to combat unreliable/generic LLM guidance by grounding outputs in retrieval-first RAG over resumes/job/hiring data, with multi-step reasoning, structured memory, and evidence-only prompting to reduce hallucinations. Implemented the system with LangChain/Python and deployed on AWS as scalable microservices orchestrated via REST and asynchronous calls, iterating closely with career coaches and students.”

Junior Software Engineer specializing in distributed systems and cloud platforms

2y exp

“Software engineer (Lance Soft Engineering) who built a Java/gRPC real-time request tracking system supporting ~20K simultaneous requests, using Kafka event streaming and PostgreSQL to improve transparency and cut support requests by 35%. Demonstrates strong production operations skills—resolved live latency spikes with Kafka async messaging (+48% throughput) and executed safe migrations using parallel runs, staging validation, and blue-green deployments.”

Mid-level AI/ML Engineer specializing in GenAI, NLP, and production MLOps

5y exp

“AI/LLM engineer who built and deployed a production healthcare RAG chatbot ("DoctorBot") with strict medical safety guardrails, an 85% confidence-gated verification layer, and latency optimizations that cut responses from ~8s to ~2–3s. Also worked on finflow.ai to generate finance/banking test cases from BRDs, collaborating closely with non-technical domain stakeholders, and has hands-on orchestration experience with LangChain/LangGraph and agentic evaluation/monitoring practices.”

“AI/ML engineer with 9+ years of experience building production recommendation and LLM systems end-to-end, from experimentation through deployment, monitoring, and retraining. Stands out for combining strong MLOps discipline with practical GenAI/RAG implementation, including measurable impact such as ~25% higher engagement on an e-commerce recommender and nearly 30% faster knowledge retrieval from internal documents.”

“Full-stack engineer who built an enterprise knowledge assistant from scratch using React, FastAPI, PostgreSQL, ChromaDB, and OpenAI, with role-scoped cited answers over internal PDFs. Stands out for combining hands-on LLM/RAG architecture with rigorous evals, improving grounded QA accuracy from 85% to 95% and deploying a production-style multi-tenant system on AWS.”

“Seasoned engineering leader and Fractional CTO with 20+ years of experience helping startups navigate the transition from early product traction to scalable operations. Particularly strong in stepping into VC-backed, high-growth environments, stabilizing fragile MVP-era systems, and aligning technology strategy with business, operational, and fundraising goals.”
