Vetted Teaching Assistants in the Bay Area

“Built and shipped a production LLM-powered grading platform that automates rubric-aligned scoring and feedback, with strong guardrails (RAG grounding, structured JSON, validation/retries) and operational rigor (metrics, drift monitoring). Experienced using CrewAI to orchestrate multi-agent workflows end-to-end and validating quality via gold-set benchmarking against human graders with regression testing on every prompt/model change.”

“Built a production SQL chatbot for access-log analytics that replaced manual custom report requests with natural-language querying, using LangGraph and a ChromaDB-backed RAG pipeline for grounded, consistent answers. Implemented a privacy-preserving design where the LLM never sees raw customer data (only query metadata) and has experience building multi-agent/tool-calling systems with LangGraph (DeepAgents), including solving sub-agent communication drift via self-reflection.”

“Full-stack engineer who shipped a production "Financial Insight" assistant dashboard in Next.js App Router/TypeScript, integrating a RAG pipeline (embeddings + ChromaDB + LLM) via route handlers and owning post-launch performance (latency, token cost, retrieval relevance). Also built/optimized Postgres-backed workflows for an outbound dialer and callback routing engine handling ~10,000 daily contacts, validating query performance with EXPLAIN (ANALYZE, BUFFERS).”

“Software engineering intern experience at Zoho Corp and Zeus Desk building and deploying customer-facing systems. Delivered a real-time booking platform backend that stayed stable for 1,000+ users by optimizing MySQL queries/indexing and shipping hotfixes during production latency incidents. Also integrated financial operations APIs across 50+ small-bank partners by creating a normalization/validation layer to handle inconsistent partner data and prevent integration breakages.”

“Research assistant who single-handedly built and integrated an indoor autonomous wheelchair system using NVIDIA Jetson Nano, LiDAR, and a stereo camera. Implemented a multi-sensor perception pipeline (OpenCV/PCL) with ROS-based modular nodes, TF frame management, and robust debugging via RViz/rosbag, plus simulation testing in Gazebo and Dockerized environments for portability.”

“At ReferU.AI, designed and deployed an agentic RAG pipeline that automates multi-jurisdiction legal document drafting, emphasizing hallucination reduction through hybrid retrieval, validation agents, guardrails, and iterative regeneration. Experienced with orchestration frameworks (especially CrewAI) and rigorous testing/evaluation practices including human-in-the-loop review, adversarial testing, and production metrics/logging.”
