At Stafflink, I architect production-grade GenAI applications using Python, LangChain, and LLM APIs, supporting 500+ users and 8,000 daily requests.

I engineered RAG pipelines with hybrid search, embeddings, and contextual re-ranking, improving answer relevance by 28%. I also developed LangGraph agent workflows that automated enterprise processes and saved 12 hours weekly.

At Blue Sheild, I developed LLM-powered applications and fine-tuned transformer models using Hugging Face Transformers, PyTorch, and PEFT. The fine-tuning improved task-specific model performance by 17% while reducing training resource requirements by 40%.

At Weights & Biases, I developed machine learning workflows for predictive modeling and classification, improving model performance by 18%. I also built reusable data-processing and model-development pipelines handling 1M+ records.
