Entry-level Machine Learning Engineer building RAG and conversational AI for better customer support.
What I'm looking for
I’m an entry-level AI Engineer / Machine Learning Engineer focused on building conversational AI systems and practical machine learning applications. I developed and deployed a production-grade AI chatbot using LangChain with open-source LLMs and a FAISS vector store, exposing it through a RESTful FastAPI service for real-time natural-language queries.
In my internship, I processed 10,000+ HCES records with Pandas to accelerate insight delivery by 35%, and I implemented tokenization and text classification pipelines to improve intent recognition accuracy by 20%. I also built an end-to-end demand-forecasting MLOps pipeline with MLflow model registry, automated metric logging, Dockerized deployment, and CI/CD, plus Evidently AI drift monitoring with auto-retraining—alongside a RAG-based YouTube chatbot with semantic retrieval and transformer-based fine-tuning. I’m seeking to apply NLP and generative AI expertise to enhance customer support solutions.
