What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build production AI products involving search, recommendation systems, computer vision, and LLM/RAG workflows, with ownership from model design through low-latency deployment.

At Rapidops, I build production AI systems for e-commerce, including semantic search, recommendation engines, visual search, and RAG assistants.

I developed a sub-200ms semantic search engine using query-intent classification, BM42 and CLIP hybrid retrieval in Qdrant, and engagement and personalization signals. I also built a multi-strategy recommendation engine spanning collaborative filtering, association mining, session-based recommendations, content-based retrieval, and popularity ranking.

I take systems from model design through low-latency serving, using Python, PyTorch, FastAPI, Qdrant, Apache Solr, PostgreSQL, ClickHouse, and LangGraph. My work includes an image-based product search pipeline, agentic knowledge-base assistants, and search optimization that improved Qdrant facet retrieval performance by 75%.
