What I'm looking for

I’m looking to build production-grade GenAI products—LLM apps, RAG, and LangGraph agentic workflows—with strong evaluation, observability, and secure multi-tenant delivery, where reliability, latency, and cost are treated as first-class priorities.

I’m a Senior AI Full Stack Engineer with 10+ years of experience delivering production-grade AI, SaaS, backend, and full-stack applications. I specialize in Large Language Model (LLM) applications—especially Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and agentic systems.

At Nike and across client work, I’ve built scalable GenAI solutions for both enterprise and startup environments. I design RAG pipelines with hybrid search, reranking, metadata filtering, and retrieval evaluation loops to improve accuracy and reduce hallucinations, then productionize with secure multi-tenant architectures and robust observability.

I also develop LangChain and LangGraph-based multi-agent workflows with tool calling, conditional routing, memory handling, and workflow state management. I care deeply about evaluation, response validation, and reliable deployment—turning promising prototypes into dependable AI-powered products.
