Johnson & Johnson, World-Wide Headquarters, New Brunswick, NJ• Lead the design and architecture of generative AI models and systems that utilize large-scale data. Collaborate with data scientists, ML engineers, and product teams to create scalable and efficient AI-driven platforms.• Leverage Big Data technologies (Hadoop, Spark, etc.) to handle massive datasets and ensure efficient data ingestion, processing, and storage for AI applications.• Architect, develop, and integrate AI models into multi-language-based enterprise applications, ensuring smooth operation within existing systems.• Work with teams to develop generative AI models (e.g., GPT, GANs) and optimize them for performance, scalability, and business needs. Ensure models are trained on relevant datasets and continuously updated.• Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including data engineering, software development, and business stakeholders, to drive AI initiatives. Mentor junior engineers and provide guidance on AI and Big Data architecture.• Architect and deploy AI systems in cloud environments (AWS, GCP, Azure) and ensure robust infrastructure for AI model deployment and scalability.• Stay updated with the latest trends and advancements in AI, Big Data, and Java technologies, applying knowledge to enhance systems and processes.

Principal Software Engineer and Generative AI EngineerDevelop Full-Stack Event Driven AI Applications (RAG, AI Agents, Generative AI, Prompt Engineering, LLM Tuning, Intelligent Document Processing, Computer Vision, Natural Language Processing).Work closely with end-users, planners, UI designers, cross-functional teams, and stakeholders to build solutions that meet business needs and enable seamless cross-department collaboration.• Conversational/Chatbot AI retrieved public financial regulatory documents using natural language queries. Leveraged document version manifests to ensure accurate retrieval of the latest regulations, utilizing Dynamic Context Injection to highlight differences between versions and provide users with the newest regulations with sources of both old and new regulatory requirements. (SageMaker Pipelines, OpenSearch, Bedrock Agents).• Document-Retrieval AI utilized semantic search to retrieve frontend users’ account details, including specific billing queries, using natural language inputs. The solution utilized Chunking to break down response tokens, ensuring the results fit within the Context Window limitations of the Claude (Opus) model. (Bedrock Agents, OpenSearch, HF Embeddings).• Contextual AI utilized Chaining to processing image summaries by providing the Prompt with a JSON of key/value pairs. Used Computer Vision to generate bounding box detection on objects in the images, later semantic search queries were used to locate images. (AWS Rekognition).• Turbine Power Output Prediction: Developed an application with a model to predict turbine power output up to 15 days in advance, optimizing power generation forecasts for utility company power consumption planning. (Databricks Solution Accelerator (open-source) (PySpark, MLflow).** (Additional work on Resume) **
