Developed a high-precision PDF table extraction pipeline using Microsoft’s Table Transformer and CRAFT OCR, achieving ~95% structural accuracy on complex, pivot-style financial tables. Designed and deployed a scalable Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) platform to surface critical policy insights from dense financial disclosure bundles (e.g., Mastercard, VISA). The solution integrated a Neo4j Knowledge Graph via LightRAG for semantic reasoning, a high-throughput Haystack retriever with cross-encoder reranking, and a prompt-optimized GPT-4 model — resulting in 4× faster insight generation with highly structured, context-aware outputs. Co-developed resilient FastAPI microservices as part of a cross-functional offshore team for a multi-intent IVR system handling balance and statement inquiries. The system streamed Gemini Flash 2.0 responses via Vertex AI and Neo4j for real-time user financial attribute context, achieving >90% classification accuracy and sub-5s latency in Production.
