GIC
/ AI Engineer
Built an internal agentic CLI agent and a sandboxed Chainlit assistant over proprietary models, with 8 custom tools, multi-agent orchestration, and skill-routing, giving an 11-person team AI tooling where classified-data constraints rule out Copilot. Engineered step-level guardrails via custom hooks that audit and validate every agent action, and designed an agentic audit pipeline that queries Snowflake and SharePoint as tools, runs ETL, and generates audit-ready reports from plain-English prompts, automating two previously manual data sources from hours to near-instant.
