“Application-focused software engineer with experience at Amazon and Motorola shipping production systems ranging from developer monitoring/on-call tooling (Alcazar, ~40% MTTR improvement) to consumer AI features used by 100K+ users. Currently building an AI/ML-driven platform with a Python/FastAPI backend on AWS (ECS/RDS/S3) and has handled real production latency/scaling incidents end-to-end.”

“GenAI/LLM engineer who architected and deployed a production RAG “research assistant” for JPMorgan Chase’s regulatory compliance team, focused on safety-critical behavior (mandatory citations, refusal when evidence is missing). Deep hands-on experience with LlamaIndex, Pinecone, Hugging Face embeddings, LangGraph agent workflows, and metric-driven evaluation (golden sets, TruLens), including a reported 28% relevancy lift via cross-encoder re-ranking.”

“Walmart engineer who built and shipped a production LLM+RAG system to automate triage and analysis of computer support chats/tickets, producing grounded, schema-constrained JSON outputs for summaries, urgency, and routing recommendations. Emphasizes reliability (hallucination control, confidence thresholds, human-in-the-loop) and runs end-to-end pipelines with Airflow and AWS-native orchestration, plus rigorous evaluation and monitoring tied to business KPIs.”

“Built a production agentic AI system to automate data science work using a layered architecture (executive-summary handling, tool-based execution, and on-the-fly code generation). Demonstrates strong end-to-end agent development practices including RAG with vector databases, prompt engineering, and multi-method evaluation (LLM-as-judge/human/code-based), plus Airflow-based orchestration for ML data pipelines and close collaboration with business end users.”

“Built and deployed a production LLM/RAG fraud investigation system to replace manual investigator workflows, combining transaction data, historical cases, and policy documents with agent-style steps and LoRA fine-tuning. Demonstrates strong reliability engineering (grounding, citations, abstention paths), performance optimization (retrieval/indexing/caching), and end-to-end MLOps orchestration using Azure ML Pipelines/MLflow plus Kubernetes/Argo with canary and rollback deployments.”

“Built and shipped a production LLM-powered RAG assistant for enterprise internal document search (PDFs, knowledge bases, structured data), addressing real-world issues like noisy documents, hallucinations, and latency with grounded prompting, retrieval-confidence fallbacks, and performance optimizations. Also partnered with compliance and business teams at JPMc to deliver a solution aligned with regulatory constraints, supported by monitoring, feedback loops, and systematic evaluation.”

“Summer SDE intern at AWS who built and deployed a column-lineage debugging tool for on-call engineers, using AWS Bedrock to parse SQL and generate a column DAG. Integrated the tool into an existing validation system and hardened it against real-world SQL format differences via flexible parsing and testing with queries from multiple upstream teams.”

“AI/ML engineer (Cognizant) who built a production, real-time credit card fraud detection platform combining deep-learning anomaly detection with an LLM-based explanation layer. Strong focus on regulated deployment: addressed class imbalance and feature drift, and added guardrails (SHAP/structured inputs, fine-tuning on analyst reports, rule-based validation) to keep explanations accurate and compliant. Orchestrated the full pipeline with Airflow + Databricks/Spark and used MLflow/Prometheus plus A/B and shadow deployments for measurable reliability.”

“ML/LLM engineer who has shipped a production transformer-based document understanding system on AWS, owning the full pipeline from domain fine-tuning to Dockerized CI/CD deployment. Demonstrates strong production rigor—latency optimization (distillation/quantization, async batching, autoscaling), orchestration with Airflow/Step Functions/Azure Data Factory, and monitoring/drift detection—plus experience translating ops stakeholder needs into adopted AI automation via dashboards.”

“Data/ML engineer with experience across pharma (Dr. Reddy Laboratories) and financial services (Cincinnati Financial, Capital One), building production NLP and entity-resolution systems that connect messy unstructured text with enterprise SQL data. Delivered semantic search with BERT + vector DB and domain fine-tuning (reported ~35% relevance lift), and builds robust pipelines using Airflow/dbt/Spark with strong validation, monitoring, and stakeholder-aligned rollout practices.”
