I’m a senior Python and AI/LLM engineer with 11+ years of experience building scalable backend systems and AI-driven applications across healthcare, banking, and enterprise environments. I work on high-performance APIs, async services, and data-intensive platforms, with a strong focus on Python (FastAPI/Flask/Django), Pydantic validation, and reliable system integration. I also build agentic and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) workflows using LangChain/LangGraph, vector embeddings, and guardrailed, structured outputs for safer, more accurate results. Recently, I’ve delivered telecom and compliance document automation, orchestration for multi-step agent tasks, and monitoring/evaluation pipelines to improve quality over time while deploying production services on AWS with Docker/Kubernetes and CI/CD.

Gen A.I / LLM Engineer at Crown Castle (Telecom)
March 1, 2025 - Present
Developed an AI/LLM proof-of-concept pipeline to convert 6,000 compliance documents from Word to PDF. Built agentic AI solutions and end-to-end RAG pipelines including ingestion/parsing, tokenization and chunking, embeddings, vector indexing, retrieval with metadata filtering and re-ranking, prompt construction, and structured response generation. Implemented telecom-focused chunking/token optimization for better contextual retrieval. Used Claude and Qwen for OCR-style extraction to enrich JSON with image-derived descriptions. Curated triplet datasets (anchor/positive/negative) to fine-tune and deploy embedding workflows, storing embeddings in Pinecone for semantic search. Built LLaMA 3.2 RAG question-answering for document-based navigation and extraction. Engineered FAISS/Hugging Face-based autonomous analysis agents to identify relevant document sections and respond accurately with traceable retrieval context, and established monitoring/fine-tuning practices based on outputs and feed
Senior AI/ML Engineer at Elevance Health
April 1, 2024 - March 1, 2025
Built agentic AI workflows that support reasoning, tool selection, API invocation, task execution, and multi-step orchestration for business process automation. Integrated foundation models/LLM APIs with prompt engineering, structured outputs, context management, function/tool calling, and response validation. Designed and deployed scalable AI/ML applications using AWS services (S3, Lambda, EC2, RDS, CloudWatch) and containerized workloads. Implemented Snowflake-based ETL/ELT architectures and high-volume data pipelines. Developed asynchronous REST APIs and microservices with FastAPI/Flask, Pydantic, async/await, and secure JWT/OAuth2 authentication. Added LangSmith and monitoring/tracing for LLM observability and production troubleshooting. Built document indexing and retrieval chains using LangChain/LlamaIndex with enterprise data/API integration, and created guardrails to reduce hallucinations and prompt-injection risks. Developed front-end experiences in React/TypeScript connected
Senior Python Developer (Backend) at BNY Mellon
March 1, 2023 - March 1, 2024
