@habibulrahmanqalbi
AI Engineer at Airconcur (Growise) who cut AI service costs by up to 70% and made them up to 4x faster.
What I'm looking for
At Airconcur (Growise), I architect and ship agentic and RAG-based AI microservices in Python, working directly with C-level leaders. My changes to caching, data canonicalization, and context and memory management cut service costs by up to 70% and made the services up to 4x faster than a baseline tool-calling agent.
I re-engineered the retrieval layer with Voyage AI embeddings, reranking, and data cleanup, reducing latency by about 30% and increasing reasoning accuracy by about 60% versus earlier versions. I also built containerized, multi-LLM RAG modules with isolated per-user indexes and added safeguards for PII, prompt injection, and moderation.
Previously, at PT Mandiri International Technology, I built customer-facing web apps and a cross-platform mobile app on a Django REST backend. My work has also included a research prototype for ultrasound deep-vein segmentation at Institut Teknologi Sepuluh Nopember (ITS), using a U-Net model with 3D visualization.
