Enterprise Search, RAG & Conversational AI
An agent is only as good as what it can find and understand. I bring two decades of search and language work — query understanding, retrieval, ranking, entity linking, and translation — to the RAG systems, agents, and conversational analytics enterprises are building now.
I founded the Query Understanding team behind Walmart.com search (+85% long-tail understanding), was the second engineer on eBay’s machine translation engine ($1B+ added GMV), and built early LLM and retrieval-augmented conversational systems at Amazon Alexa that doubled user satisfaction.
