I build production agentic AI, GenAI, and ML platforms across healthcare, finance, cybersecurity, and consumer technology.
What I'm looking for
At Elevance Health, I architect reusable GenAI and agentic AI platforms for Sydney Health and member-service initiatives, reducing duplicated engineering across four teams and improving workflow latency and inference cost. I build governed RAG, multi-agent workflows, GPU-backed LLM serving, evaluation standards, and LLMOps systems for healthcare operations.
Previously, I delivered conversational payments analytics and fraud models at JPMorgan Chase, multimodal precision-oncology ML at Tempus AI, security analytics at CrowdStrike, and speech, ranking, and on-device ML improvements for Siri at Apple. I enjoy leading architecture decisions, mentoring engineers, and moving reliable AI systems from experimentation into governed production.
