Research and Development
  • This project involved extraction of intelligence data to support report writing for a company that provides geopolitical, global, commercial intelligence. The data have been gathered from a number of resources (interview transcripts, online data, internal documents), and then a knowledge base has been build from it. This was the basis of a complex RAG system, that was evaluated against a golden dataset. Agents have been used to find out the contradicting intelligence, the statements supporting each other, and to store back the generated knowledge.

Used: Python, RAG, LangGraph, LangChain, deepeval, MCP

Product Development
  • Creation of a multi-agentic system that helps a media house in their daily business. The first project was creating a RAG system via Google Filestore, ingesting data from more than 80 websites (belonging to this media house) - this system was then queried by the end uses, who would ask various questions about the new content (series, shows, movies, books). Another project was developed with Google Agent Development Kit (ADK), and was a multi-agentic system communicating with RAG, on top of which I build an analysis layer, reporting about the recent job posts suitable for the media house. I was responsible for the design and end-to-end development, including deployment at GCP. In this project I also used MCP (Model Context Protocol).

  • To create a multi-agentic system, supported by a Knowledge Graph, that automates the process of drafting a research paper. The system used multiple experts (OpenAI models) that 'collaborated' during the process of document drafting. The whole process was supported by a Knowledge Graph out of which we extracted useful information. Technologies used for this framework: LangChain, LangGraph, Smolagents, LlamaIndex, dspy. The project involved the use of Terraform and GitHub Actions (CI/CD Pipeline), via AWS. The initial application was deployed as a Streamlit app. I was responsible for the AI Engineering part, Knowledge Graph creation, and also deployment in AWS. This was a GenAI Engineer role, also involving Prompt Evaluation and Retrieval Optimization (Langfuse).

Used: Python, Git, LangChain, LangGraph, dspy, GraphRAG, RAG, SQL

  • an LLM chatbot to help with HR-related inquiries. Approach: I led the development of an advanced Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) system aimed at improving HR data retrieval processes. This system utilizes a Vector Similarity Search Database and commercial LLM API to efficiently source and integrate extensive HR-related data, enabling it to respond to a broad spectrum of HR inquiries. We have also attempted to fine-tune an LLM for this task, and the technologies used were PEFT (LoRA), and sophisticated Prompt Engineering. My responsibility was setting up the system, starting with plain HR documents, and using Amazon Bedrock for this project. We also associated several agents with the system.
