“Robotics engineer who built a 6-axis force-torque sensor system end-to-end at ROAM Lab, including electronics, low-level drivers, and ROS2 live inference with time-series deep learning (ultimately a 1D ResNet) to handle highly noisy, session-shifting signals. Also upgraded tactile manipulation models to time-series inputs by modifying long-standing ROS architectures, and has prior experience in defense (L3Harris) with production-grade testing and code review practices; published work: arxiv.org/abs/2410.03481.”

“VP of HR with 5 years in a design/manufacturing organization, leading full-cycle recruiting and training across engineering, design, IT, production, and operations. Has driven major org initiatives including employee value mapping, org development tied to revenue targets, and transitions to new PEO/payroll, healthcare, and 401(k) providers, using a structured RASCI-based project approach. Experienced managing distributed contractors across Canada, Jamaica, and the Philippines with clear core/flex-hour policies to handle time zones.”

“Early-career (fresher) candidate who built and deployed a production AI medical document chatbot using a RAG architecture (LangChain + Hugging Face LLM + Pinecone) with a Flask backend on AWS EC2 via Docker. Has experience troubleshooting real deployment constraints (model dependencies, disk space, container stability) and setting up continuous-style evaluation with fixed query test sets tracking relevance, latency, and error rate.”
