What I'm looking for

I want to build and productionize LLM-powered products end to end—combining scalable backend design with rigorous evaluation (LLM-as-judge), clean APIs, and real-world user feedback to ship safely.

I’m an AI engineer transitioning from full-stack development, with 3+ years building enterprise-grade systems and shipping LLM-integrated features in production. At Bounteous, I redesigned AskClari’s natural-language answer engine (v3) and built an offline LLM-as-judge evaluation pipeline to validate it against thousands of real, user-rated historical answers.

I also personally built and published a Chrome extension (340+ installs) using a custom-engineered GPT-4.1 prompt pipeline, and I contributed an open-source MCP (Model Context Protocol) server so LLM agents can interact with YouTube tooling. I’m AWS Certified AI Practitioner with working knowledge of Amazon Bedrock, SageMaker, RAG, and fine-tuning, backed by a strong foundation in scalable system design (DDD, microservices, and async processing with Sidekiq).
