Work Experience

Generative AI Engineer at CVS Health
March 1, 2025 - Present
Built healthcare Generative AI and Agentic AI solutions for pharmacy document intelligence using LangChain, LangGraph, LangGraph Studio, Vertex AI, and Pinecone. Developed agentic workflows for multi-step pharmacy document review with tool calling, agent memory, and structured outputs. Implemented MCP servers/clients to standardize reusable tool access to internal APIs for healthcare agents. Delivered production RAG pipelines including ingestion, chunking, embeddings, semantic retrieval, metadata filtering, and grounded answering from internal content. Exposed AI capabilities via FastAPI/REST services, deployed on GCP using Cloud Run, GKE, and Kubernetes, and added observability through LangSmith/Langfuse and Cloud Monitoring. Applied responsible AI practices (PII handling, access controls, audit logging, explainability review, and HIPAA-aware governance) and implemented MLflow-based LLMOps/MLOps with model and prompt versioning and CI/CD via GitHub Actions for reliable releases.
Data Scientist / AI-ML Engineer at Morgan Stanley
February 1, 2023 - February 28, 2025
Designed and developed ML solutions for credit risk, fraud detection, customer segmentation, and transaction anomaly detection using Azure Machine Learning and standard ML/DL models (scikit-learn, XGBoost, TensorFlow, PyTorch). Built financial document processing workflows using NLP for classification, entity extraction, summarization, and semantic search to make reports searchable and analyzable. Implemented retrieval workflows using Azure OpenAI embeddings and metadata filtering for institutional knowledge access. Deployed and supported scoring services with Docker, Kubernetes, and Azure Kubernetes Service using REST APIs and monitored via Azure Monitor and Application Insights. Established governed model lifecycle practices with MLflow/Azure ML, Docker/Kubernetes, and CI/CD, and contributed to cross-functional alignment with risk/compliance stakeholders on AI governance and audit expectations.
Data Scientist / ML Engineer at State of Washington
June 1, 2020 - January 31, 2023
