<p>Location: Cape Girardeau, MO, USA (CST)<p>Remote: Yes<p>Willing to relocate: No<p>Technologies: Python, FastAPI, TypeScript, React, LangGraph, RAG, Chroma, Pinecone, pgvector, PostgreSQL, Redis Streams, Anthropic/OpenAI/Gemini APIs, MCP, LLM-as-judge evals, AWS Lambda + Bedrock, Docker, GitHub Actions<p>Résumé/CV: <a href="https://sjtroxel.github.io" rel="nofollow">https://sjtroxel.github.io</a><p>Email: sjtroxel@protonmail.com<p>---<p>I'm basically self-taught / career-changer. Everything I have built is deployed and clickable — no private repos, nothing "available on request."<p>Most of my time goes into making sure the system does not confidently make something up. In Patchwork Assurance (<a href="https://patchworkassurance.com" rel="nofollow">https://patchworkassurance.com</a>), a compliance tool for US AI-regulation law, the decision about which laws apply to a company is computed in plain code rather than by the model, so the verdict cannot be hallucinated — the model only writes the cited explanation around it. I made the multi-agent version the default only after a judged evaluation showed it beat the simpler single-pass version: groundedness 97.9% vs 95.9%, citations 100% vs 97.7%.<p>Same idea in the others. Heritage Odyssey (<a href="https://heritage-odyssey.vercel.app" rel="nofollow">https://heritage-odyssey.vercel.app</a>) does multi-tenant RAG over private family trees and hands back to the user when retrieval is weak instead of inventing ancestry. Wildlife Sentinel (<a href="https://wildlife-sentinel.vercel.app" rel="nofollow">https://wildlife-sentinel.vercel.app</a>) runs a five-agent swarm on Redis Streams against nine government data feeds, and scored its own predictions against what actually happened afterward.<p>No commercial engineering experience — this is all solo work I built and operate end to end. Looking for a remote AI engineer role.</p>
