About

Backend/AI engineer who has shipped an LLM-powered enterprise support-ticket agent at Comcast, building a production-grade microservices pipeline (FastAPI, SQS, Redis) with strong observability (OpenTelemetry/Splunk/Prometheus/Grafana) and reliability patterns (async, caching, circuit breakers, idempotency). Demonstrated quantified impact at scale—processing 10k+ tickets/day while improving response SLAs and routing accuracy through evaluation and human feedback loops.

Key Strengths

  • Shipped LLM ticket-processing agent to production at Comcast (summarization, sentiment, routing)
  • Production reliability engineering for LLM systems (async handling, caching, circuit breakers, fallbacks)
  • Designed multi-step agent orchestration with microservices + SQS + Redis state management
  • Built observability and monitoring stack (OpenTelemetry, Splunk, Prometheus, Grafana) with measurable uptime targets
  • Scaled workflow to 10,000+ tickets/day with zero message loss and 99.99% uptime (as stated)
  • Delivered measurable business impact: 15 hours/week manual effort reduced, 20% faster first response time, 30% higher recommendation/routing accuracy
  • Implemented eval + feedback loops and error analysis to improve routing accuracy (30%) and reduce error rates (20%)
  • Improved high-severity ticket detection via preprocessing + reweighted routing logic (+18% detection accuracy, -25% misclassification)
  • Handled messy ERP-like data with schema validation (Pydantic), idempotency, and quarantine workflows; reduced data-related API errors by 40% and prevented duplicate transactions
