Drake T.

Principal AI Engineer & Founder of PrismBase.ai | Senior Data Scientist with 9+ years of experience architecting production-grade analytics platforms and 6+ years deploying enterprise machine learning and agentic AI systems on Google Cloud Platform (GCP). I specialize in LangChain, LangGraph, multi-agent orchestrations, RAG pipelines, and robust FastAPI backends that translate complex AI into measurable business impact. 🤖 Agentic AI & LLM Engineering Autonomous Workflows: Design and deploy multi-agent systems using LangChain and LangGraph for high-stakes enterprise use cases (underwriting, fraud detection, document intelligence). Production RAG: Build advanced Retrieval-Augmented Generation systems scaling across millions of documents. Integrations: Connect agentic workflows seamlessly into core communication stacks, including Slack, Telegram, and enterprise email environments. ☁️ End-to-End ML & MLOps on GCP Vertex AI Mastery: Build complete enterprise pipelines—from data preparation and training to evaluation, deployment, and continuous monitoring. Proven ROI: Led predictive modeling for fraud detection (30% accuracy improvement), student retention, and predictive maintenance (80% reduction in operational events) across 20TB+ datasets. Cost Optimization: Architected cloud infrastructure refinements that cut client cloud spend by 50%. ⚡ FastAPI & Production API Development Backend Architecture: Build high-performance, asynchronous RESTful APIs utilizing Pydantic validation, async job processing, and Docker containerization. System Integration: Deliver clean API layers engineered to power real-time dashboards, integrate with legacy CRMs, and serve production ML models at scale. 📊 Data Science & Technical Stack Core Competencies: Python, SQL, BigQuery, XGBoost, LightGBM, SHAP/LIME explainability, and advanced feature engineering. Enterprise Delivery: Trusted to deliver mission-critical solutions for Fortune 500 clients, including Morgan Stanley, Wells Fargo, US Bank, and Verizon. I bridge the gap between deep technical execution and executive-level strategy. I work at $80/hr and bring principal-level execution to every engagement.
