Available to hire
I am a results-driven AI/ML engineer with over 9 years of cross-functional experience in MLOps, LLMOps, deep learning, and AI platform engineering. I thrive in delivering reproducible, secure, and explainable AI solutions across cloud environments (GCP, AWS, Azure) and on Kubernetes-based backends.
I specialize in building end-to-end ML pipelines, GenAI solutions, RAG architectures, and governance-enabled LLM orchestration for healthcare, financial services, and retail use cases.

Lead AI/ML Engineer – Gen AI at Cotiviti
February 1, 2025 - PresentArchitected multi-LLM Retrieval-Augmented Generation pipelines using LangChain, FAISS, and Vertex AI to enable context-aware audit automation for payer datasets with domain-tuned LLaMA2 and PaLM models. Containerized and deployed LLM microservices with BentoML and KServe on GKE for high availability and GPU-efficient production endpoints. Designed a vector-store abstraction layer (Pinecone, Qdrant, Weaviate) for modular swapping of similarity search across claim summarization and patient explanations. Fine-tuned Mistral-7B and LLaMA2 with Hugging Face Transformers and tracked lineage with MLflow and DVC for reproducibility. Integrated PromptLayer with LangChain to monitor prompt quality and token usage across agents supporting billing code analysis. Built a hybrid FAISS/Elasticsearch search stack to blend dense retrieval with metadata filtering over large healthcare corpora. Deployed CLIP and Whisper for multimodal workflows (invoicing, OCR explanations, document review). Orchestrated

January 1, 2025 - October 15, 2025Architected and scaled secure, explainable ML deployment infrastructures for mission-critical cybersecurity analytics on Azure. Delivered CI/CD-enabled ML workflows, feature stores, and inference services with operational visibility and regulatory compliance. Built reproducible pipelines with MLflow, DVC, and Apache Airflow; containerized models with TorchServe, TensorFlow Serving, and Triton Inference Server; orchestrated AKS-based deployments with Helm, enabling autoscaling and secure exposure. Provisioned IaC with Terraform to automate AKS clusters, Azure Key Vault secrets, storage accounts, and policies. Implemented real-time and batch feature pipelines with Feast and Azure storage; automated CI/CD for model training, validation, and deployment using GitHub Actions with gated promotions. Integrated Azure ML SDK for orchestrating training, managing compute, model registration, and endpoint exposure. Added SHAP and LIME explainability, Argo-compatible deployment manifests, and end-to
ML Platform Engineer at USAA
September 1, 2023 - October 15, 2025Built reproducible ML pipelines with DVC and MLflow to enable dataset, model, and metric versioning for financial risk and fraud analytics. Containerized models with Docker and deployed via Kubernetes, exposing scalable microservices with pre/post inference hooks. Implemented CI/CD with GitHub Actions and Jenkins, enforcing gated promotions and environment isolation. Managed model lifecycle with MLflow Tracking and MLflow Registry, integrating it with GitOps for stage-wise approvals and rollback. Configured SageMaker training/hosting with REST APIs for secure fraud scoring. Integrated DVC for feature data provenance and lineage, and provisioned Kubernetes resources with Helm for isolated experimentation. Implemented automated drift detection hooks in CI pipelines, and refactored notebooks into production-grade modules coordinated through Jupyter/CI. Collaborated with platform security to enforce container scanning, image whitelisting, and IAM controls. Standardized Python environments
