Vetted Vertex AI Professionals

“Backend/data engineer with hands-on production experience building FastAPI Python APIs and AWS-native platforms (Lambda/API Gateway, SQS, ECS Fargate) with Terraform + GitHub Actions CI/CD and strong reliability practices (JWT/RBAC, retries/timeouts, structured errors/logging). Also built AWS Glue ETL pipelines (S3/RDS to curated S3/Athena) with schema evolution and data quality controls, modernized legacy processing via parallel-run validation and phased cutovers, and has demonstrated SQL tuning impact (seconds to <200ms) plus incident ownership for batch pipeline SLAs.”

“Engineering leader (Director/VP level) who has repeatedly aligned product and engineering through ROI-driven quarterly roadmaps and strong stakeholder communication, including board presentations. Built a parallel cloud team to migrate an on-prem product to the cloud, credited with delivering $9M ARR, and led a Python monolith-to-serverless event-driven microservices transformation. Currently manages distributed teams across Mexico, India, and the US using pod-based structures, clear KPIs, and a supportive accountability culture.”

“Backend/ML engineer who has shipped high-scale real-time systems across e-commerce and healthcare: built a PharmEasy real-time recommendation engine for ~2M monthly users (cut feature latency 5 min→30 sec; +15% cross-sell) and architected a HIPAA-compliant multimodal clinical diagnostic workflow (DICOM+EHR) with XAI, MLOps (MLflow/Airflow/K8s), and drift/monitoring guardrails supporting 10k+ daily predictions.”

“AI engineer who has shipped production LLM systems end-to-end, including a natural-language-to-SQL analytics copilot for career advisors that achieved ~95% query success through schema grounding, access controls, and automated regression testing with golden queries. Also builds LangGraph-orchestrated multi-step agents (resume analysis, recommendations) and RAG pipelines (PDF ingestion + FAISS) and partners closely with non-technical users to drive adoption and trust.”

“LLM/ML engineer who has shipped an enterprise RAG-based Q&A system (LangChain/LlamaIndex, FAISS + Azure Cognitive Search, GPT-3.5/4 via OpenAI/Azure OpenAI) to production on Docker + Kubernetes/OpenShift, tackling hallucinations, retrieval quality, latency/cost, and RBAC/IAM security. Also partnered with operations leaders to turn manual reporting into an LLM-powered summarization and forecasting dashboard driven by real KPIs and iterative stakeholder feedback.”

“Built and shipped multiple production LLM/agentic systems, including an agentic RAG NL-to-SQL analytics app that cut manual reporting from 9 hours/week to 15 minutes by grounding on schema-aware retrieval and robust fallback/monitoring. Also implemented a LangChain supervisor-orchestrated enterprise IT automation agent that routes requests for search, identity validation, and action execution, and created a RAG search tool spanning Jira/Confluence/SharePoint for operations stakeholders.”
