AI Engineer building production agents and cited RAG systems, including OrderOps Agent with human-approved refunds and 41 CI eval cases.
What I'm looking for
With OrderOps Agent, I built a production support agent that answers policy questions, looks up orders, and proposes refunds for human approval. Its refund rules are enforced in code, and 41 evaluation cases gate changes in CI.
I also built EDGAR Analyst, which answers questions about SEC filings and earnings calls with exact citations. Its refusal guardrail requires supporting evidence before answering, and its evaluation set helps me assess citation accuracy and relevance.
As an independent AI engineer, I’m developing CodeSage, a repository-question-answering assistant. Previously, I improved backend API response times at ULTAHOST by about 35% and reduced load times at MUSHROOMSOFT-IT by about 25%.
