Data ingestion chunking embeddings vector indexing retrieval
- Optimise retrieval quality (recall, relevance, grounding)
- Evaluate and benchmark different architectures
4. Productisation & Engineering Excellence
- Develop production-grade APIs/services (FastAPI, Flask, etc.)
- Drive code quality, testing standards, and reusable architecture components
- Ensure solutions are performance optimised (latency, cost, reliability)
5. Governance, Safety & Evaluation
- Implement LLM guardrails :
- Hallucination control
- Safety filters
- Policy enforcement
- Define evaluation frameworks :
- Response quality metrics
- RAG benchmarking
- Human-in-the-loop validation
6. Collaboration & Delivery Leadership
Partner with:
