Work Experience

AI Engineer at Codeium
June 1, 2024 - Present
Designed and deployed retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) architecture using Lang Chain, Pinecone, and Llama Index, improving retrieval precision for enterprise HR systems. Built and optimized LLM prompt pipelines with GPT-4 and Claude 3 to automate resume parsing and candidate-matching workflows, reducing manual review time. Developed zero-shot and few-shot prompt frameworks for job-match scoring and classification; implemented Prompt Layer and Lang Smith for latency tracking and regression benchmarking. Created Streamlit dashboards enabling HR analysts to access GPT-powered insights for candidate recommendations and skill analysis. Deployed containerized RAG pipelines on AWS Lambda with CI/CD via GitHub Actions and Jenkins. Applied caching and API optimization for OpenAI endpoints and conducted A/B testing to refine retrieval accuracy.
