“Unity/gameplay engineer (Playtika) who built a state-machine/ECS-driven slot/bonus engine in a client-server setup, focusing on consistent outcomes under latency and highly engaging reward sequences. Also implemented server-authoritative real-time challenges/contests via an event-driven messaging system (SignalR-like) across iOS/Android/WebGL/UWP, and validates impact through retention/session/engagement analytics.”

“Built production LLM/RAG systems during a UPS internship, including a shipment knowledge agent used across 15+ hubs worldwide and a multi-agent PDF RAG workflow. Stands out for combining hands-on enterprise integration with rigorous evaluation, hallucination reduction, and efficient fine-tuning techniques like LoRA.”

“Full-stack product engineer who has built both operational systems and enterprise AI copilots in production. They owned an AI-powered inventory platform end-to-end, driving a 45% drop in stock issues, and also shipped a Microsoft Teams-based HR/IT copilot using RAG and workflow automation that reduced repetitive support queries by roughly 30%.”

“AI/LLM engineer with recent production experience at UnitedHealth Group building an end-to-end RAG system over structured EMR data and unstructured clinical notes, including evidence retrieval, GPT/LLaMA-based reasoning, and a validation layer for reliability. Strong in orchestration (Kubeflow/Airflow/MLflow), prompt engineering for noisy healthcare text, and rigorous evaluation/monitoring with gold-standard benchmarking, plus close collaboration with clinical operations stakeholders.”

“Data engineer focused on building reliable, production-grade pipelines and external data collection systems on AWS (S3/Lambda/SQS/Glue/EMR) using PySpark/SQL, serving curated datasets to Snowflake/Redshift for finance and fraud teams. Has operated a large-scale crawler ingesting millions of records/day with anti-bot tactics, schema versioning/quarantine, and CloudWatch/Datadog monitoring, and also shipped a versioned REST API with caching and query optimization.”
