About

I’m a Generative AI Engineer working on AI applications for healthcare research, with hands-on experience building LLM-powered workflows, RAG systems, and automation pipelines using Python. In my current role at Red Nucleus, I work closely with clinical research teams to understand complex research workflows, evaluate where LLM-based automation can add value, and translate validated requirements into configurable AI workflows. I contribute to the continued development of an internal AI platform supporting systematic literature review, evidence extraction, document processing, and content generation. My experience includes: • Building LLM-powered workflows using Python, OpenAI, Claude, and Gemini • Developing RAG and Agentic RAG systems using LangChain, LangGraph, embeddings, and ChromaDB • Designing configuration-driven workflows with structured outputs, JSON schemas, validation, parsing, and retry handling • Working with asynchronous processing and concurrency for high-volume AI workloads • Developing workflow-specific processing logic while maintaining reusable shared components • Working with Git/GitHub workflows, CI validation, smoke testing, debugging, and code review • Translating research and business requirements into practical AI automation solutions My background also combines technology with business and management education through an MBA, which helps me approach AI projects from both a technical and business-requirement perspective. In my current role, I use this combination when working with stakeholders to understand problems, evaluate automation opportunities, and translate requirements into practical AI solutions. One of my key areas of focus is making LLM applications more reliable and practical for real-world workflows, not just demonstrating what an LLM can do, but integrating it into repeatable processes with validation, error handling, and appropriate workflow controls. I’m particularly interested in Generative AI, LLM applications, RAG, Agentic AI, AI application engineering, and the development of scalable AI systems. Currently, I’m expanding my skills in cloud and AI infrastructure, including Docker, Microsoft Azure, Azure OpenAI Service, Azure Container Apps, and FastAPI.
