About

Built and deployed a fine-tuned Qwen 2.5 14B model into production at Dextr.ai as the backbone for hotel-operations agentic workflows, running on AWS EKS with Triton and TensorRT-LLM. Demonstrates strong cost-aware LLM engineering (QLoRA, FP8/BF16 on H100) plus rigorous benchmarking/observability (Prometheus, LangSmith) with reported sub-30ms TTNT. Previously handled long-running ETL orchestration with Airflow at GE Healthcare and Lowe's.

Key Strengths

  • Production deployment of fine-tuned LLM to AWS EKS using Triton + TensorRT-LLM
  • Cost/performance optimization under tight budget using QLoRA and mixed precision (FP8/BF16) on H100
  • Performance benchmarking and observability with Prometheus; achieved sub-30ms TTNT
  • Model quality evaluation using BLEU and perplexity
  • Orchestrated long-running ETL pipelines with Airflow; improved reliability and parallelization
  • Agent workflow tracing and bottleneck analysis with LangSmith (CoT traces, token consumption, latency)
  • Cross-functional collaboration with non-technical cofounder via daily huddles and iterative course-correction
