Senior AI Engineer building trustworthy RAG systems, production APIs, and data services grounded in customer data.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior AI Engineer focused on building retrieval-augmented systems that ground AI outputs in trustworthy customer data. At Help Scout, I spearheaded a 0-to-1 RAG initiative processing 2.3M documents, cutting retrieval latency by 47% and improving answer relevance by 33%, with production-ready standards for ingestion, chunking, and embedding pipelines.
I deliver end-to-end ML features from discovery to launch—defining metrics for quality, latency, cost, and safety, and scaling secure, observable APIs. I built a scalable retrieval service on AWS EKS with Docker and Kubernetes (120k queries/day; 95th percentile latency under 220ms), introduced hybrid search combining FAISS and Elasticsearch (index size -40%, recall +28%), and reduced inference spend by 36% through batching, caching, and cost controls.
