About

Backend engineer who built an AI RAG quoting system for the fastener industry, reducing quote turnaround from weeks to ~30 minutes and raising retrieval accuracy to ~90% by solving a semantic-collision issue with a parent-document retrieval design. Strong in production AWS integrations (Cognito auth, S3 pre-signed uploads), performance optimization (multithreading/out-of-core), and real-time streaming (Kafka/Spark Kappa architecture achieving sub-second latency), plus Kubernetes logging and GitHub Actions CI/CD to ECR.

Key Strengths

  • Built FastAPI-based RAG system cutting quoting time from weeks to ~30 minutes
  • Improved retrieval accuracy from <60% to ~90% by diagnosing semantic collision and implementing parent-document retrieval
  • Optimized Python data processing (87% faster via multithreading; 90% lower memory via out-of-core processing)
  • Designed Kafka/Spark Kappa architecture achieving sub-second streaming latency via partition/consumer parallelism
  • Implemented production auth with AWS Cognito (callbacks, user DB inserts, HTTP-only cookies)
  • Built S3 attachment upload pipeline using pre-signed URLs
  • Kubernetes logging expertise: Fluent Bit parsing to reconstruct split JSON logs before CloudWatch ingestion
  • Automated CI/CD with GitHub Actions (tests, Docker build, AWS auth, deploy to ECR) with tag-based rollback
