  • Implemented multi-layer data integrity checks (SHA-256 checksums, content-length validation, BytesIO pointer management)
  • Optimized LLM/document pipeline (RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter tuning, increased context window k=16) for long-form screenplay analysis
  • Led refactor of municipal vehicle tracking into a C-based distributed engine processing 4M+ daily packets
  • Engineered packet-level TCP/IP validation to handle burst traffic and prevent database corruption (99.99% data integrity)
