Expertise

RAG and Knowledge Retrieval

Building retrieval systems that connect language models with documents, CMS content, metadata and vector search.

Capability statement

I design retrieval pipelines where grounding, not just embedding similarity, is the thing being optimized for.

Problems I solve

  • Making private or structured content searchable by AI
  • Improving answer grounding
  • Connecting CMS content to a reasoning layer
  • Designing indexing and reindexing workflows
  • Evaluating retrieval quality

Approach

  • Normalize dynamic content into generic knowledge nodes
  • Preserve content-type and relationship metadata
  • Combine vector similarity with metadata filters
  • Keep indexing inspectable, not a black box
  • Track retrieval sources so answers can cite what they saw
I work with retrieval-augmented generation systems that index structured and unstructured content, retrieve relevant context and generate grounded answers. My focus is not only on embeddings, but also on chunking, metadata, filtering, relationships, evaluation and retrieval transparency.
Evidence standard

Strengths

  • Content-type-agnostic normalization (new CMS types need zero retrieval code changes)
  • Keyword-scoring fallback when the vector store is unavailable, so retrieval degrades gracefully instead of failing
Making sure new content types (Expertise, Skills) index and retrieve correctly without any change to the normalization or embedding code.
