Key Strengths

  • Built and production-tested an LLM/RAG video QA system for long-form video content
  • Designed scalable video ingestion with chunking and parallel processing to reduce ingestion time
  • Implemented graph-based retrieval to improve relevance and reduce retrieval/response time
  • Strong production mindset: handled real-world data inconsistency via preprocessing/normalization/validation
  • Reliability-focused evaluation: stage-level validation, end-to-end tests, regression tests, and metrics (recall/latency/task success)
  • Kubernetes-based orchestration with autoscaling and service separation to maintain performance under load
  • Constraint-driven model/retrieval/prompt selection balancing accuracy, latency, cost, and data sensitivity
  • Effective collaboration with non-technical stakeholders; translated response-time and accuracy needs into technical requirements
