Senior Python Generative AI Engineer at Discover Bank
December 1, 2024 - Present
Built an enterprise Generative AI Financial Knowledge Assistant to support fraud investigations and compliance workflows. Designed secure FastAPI/Pydantic microservices and REST APIs connecting banking applications to AI services. Implemented S3-to-ingestion pipelines using AWS Glue, PySpark, and Pandas, reducing document processing time by 45% and improving downstream data quality. Developed OCR and document preprocessing for scanned PDFs using PyPDF/pdfplumber and Unstructured; built chunking, embeddings, metadata enrichment, and semantic search pipelines with Pinecone/FAISS/ChromaDB for low-latency retrieval. Implemented RAG using LangChain, AWS Bedrock, OpenAI APIs, and prompt engineering to generate grounded answers and reduce hallucinations. Created agentic AI workflows using LangGraph (state management, conditional routing, multi-step reasoning) for fraud investigation, compliance validation, and knowledge retrieval. Integrated contextual access using SQL/PostgreSQL/Athena/Reds
Senior Data AI/ML Engineer (Python) at Selective Insurance
August 1, 2023 - December 1, 2024
Partnered with claims and underwriting stakeholders to define integration strategies and scalable data solutions for insurance risk and claims analytics. Architected ETL/ELT pipelines using Python, AWS Glue, PySpark, and Apache Spark to standardize policy, claims, billing, and customer data. Built reusable ingestion frameworks for S3 and REST API sources (JSON/CSV) and developed transformations for cleansing, validation, enrichment, reconciliation, and consolidation. Designed analytical data models in PostgreSQL, Amazon Redshift, and Snowflake using CTEs, window functions, indexing, and query optimization. Implemented Apache Kafka streaming for policy updates and claims events to enable near-real-time synchronization. Automated orchestration with Airflow/Lambda/EventBridge and built secure FastAPI services exposing curated datasets to reporting and downstream applications. Optimized Spark performance (partitioning/caching/broadcast joins/execution tuning) reducing batch processing tim
Applied Data Machine Learning Engineer at UPMC Health Plan
February 1, 2021 - July 1, 2023
Collaborated with clinicians and care management teams to translate patient-risk requirements into scalable ML solutions. Consolidated demographics, claims, lab, pharmacy, and provider data using Python/SQL/REST APIs and PySpark on S3. Prepared training datasets with cleansing, missing-value handling, transformations, and feature engineering. Conducted EDA and statistical analysis using Matplotlib/Plotly. Trained predictive models using scikit-learn, TensorFlow, PyTorch, and XGBoost to identify high-risk patients and predict hospital readmissions. Improved performance via feature selection, hyperparameter tuning, and cross-validation. Evaluated models using precision/recall/F1 and ROC-AUC for reliability and clinical relevance. Deployed real-time prediction services with AWS SageMaker, FastAPI/Flask, and MLflow. Automated retraining/validation/deployment workflows using Airflow/Lambda/EventBridge. Monitored with CloudWatch/Prometheus/Grafana/ELK and improved prediction accuracy by 20%
Senior Python Data Engineer at State of Indiana
