“Built and shipped a production LLM feature that explains DSA problems with real-life explanations, using Grok with automatic failover to OpenRouter (and multiple backup models) to avoid user-facing failures. Improved cost efficiency by implementing difficulty-based token budgets and iterated prompt quality via structured constraints and an in-app feedback mechanism, reporting satisfaction across 38 users.”

“Data engineer focused on building reliable, production-grade pipelines and data services end-to-end, including a 50+ GB/day pipeline ingesting from APIs/files into Snowflake with PySpark/SQL transformations. Emphasizes strong data quality controls, monitoring/retries, and performance optimization, and has also shipped a Python data API with caching and backward-compatible versioning.”
