AI & LLM Engineering
Expertise in OpenAI and Anthropic APIs, prompt engineering, RAG pipelines, LangChain, agentic workflows, fine-tuning (LoRA), and vector databases such as Pinecone and Weaviate. Proven track record of designing and deploying LLM-powered systems in production environments.
Workflow Automation
Deep proficiency in n8n, Zapier, Make, UiPath, Python scripting, event-driven pipelines, and cron/orchestration with Airflow. Extensive experience building and shipping 20+ production automation workflows connecting Salesforce, Slack, and internal APIs.
Software Engineering & Cloud
Strong command of Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, REST and webhook APIs, SQL/PostgreSQL, Docker, Git, and CI/CD. Cloud experience spans AWS (Lambda, S3, EC2), GCP (Vertex AI), and Azure Functions.
RPA-to-AI Migration
Migration of legacy RPA workflows (UiPath) to AI-augmented pipelines, reducing maintenance hours by 65% and eliminating recurring failure points caused by brittle UI selectors.
RAG Pipeline Development
Design and deployment of RAG-based internal knowledge assistants over Confluence and Zendesk data, adopted by 140+ employees and reducing internal support requests by 30%.
OCR & LLM Data Extraction
Automation of invoice reconciliation using OCR combined with LLM extraction, processing $2.1M/month in transactions with 99.3% accuracy.
Monitoring & Alerting for Automation Pipelines
Implementation of monitoring and alerting for automation pipelines covering uptime, error rate, and cost-per-run, cutting silent failures to near zero.
Data Analytics & Dashboarding
Building of internal dashboards using SQL and Looker to track automation ROI, used in quarterly leadership reviews. Automated weekly reporting processes using Python and Zapier.
Stakeholder Discovery & Process Mapping
Collaboration with operations leadership to scope automation opportunities, delivering prioritized roadmaps and guiding multiple quarters of engineering work. Skills include cost/ROI analysis and technical documentation.

Project history
Designed and deployed an LLM-based customer support triage agent (GPT-4 + n8n) classifying and routing 12,000+ tickets/month, cutting average response time from 4 hours to 22 minutes. Led migration of 15 legacy RPA workflows (UiPath) to AI-augmented pipelines, reducing maintenance hours by 65%. Built a RAG-based internal knowledge assistant over Confluence and Zendesk data, adopted by 140+ employees. Mentored 2 junior automation engineers and partnered with Finance to automate invoice reconciliation using OCR + LLM extraction, processing $2.1M/month with 99.3% accuracy.
Built and shipped 20+ production automation workflows in n8n and Python connecting Salesforce, Slack, and internal APIs, saving an estimated 25 hours/week of manual work. Developed a document-classification pipeline using a fine-tuned classifier + GPT-3.5 fallback, reducing manual sorting of shipping documents by 80%. Implemented monitoring and alerting for all automation pipelines and collaborated with Ops leadership to deliver a prioritized automation roadmap.
Automated weekly reporting processes using Python and Zapier, reducing report preparation time from 6 hours to 15 minutes. Built internal dashboards (SQL + Looker) to track automation ROI used in quarterly leadership reviews. Identified and scoped the first LLM pilot project at the company, which became the basis for the AI Automation Engineer role.
