What I'm looking for

I want to build backend and LLM-powered systems end to end—clean REST APIs, reliable data pipelines, and RAG features—using CI/CD and containerized deployments on cloud platforms.

I built Java Spring Boot services at Baxter International that aggregate multi-device telemetry into unified REST APIs for a tablet portal, backed by a Playwright-Java test workflow. I also created a modular Python validation framework for safety-critical embedded systems, plus a load-simulation ingestion pipeline that runs 168+ hours and processes 500,000+ records.

On the data side, I’ve built RAG pipelines using Voyage AI embeddings, ChromaDB, and Claude for semantic search and grounded answer synthesis, then extended them into an LLM developer tool that auto-generates test cases from REST API specs. Earlier roles included microservices API work at YouthCon Solutions and GCP BigQuery-based data ingestion and Kubernetes deployments at Insight Expansion.
