Sr. Applied Scientist at Amazon
Hi, I'm Eti, a Sr. Applied Scientist at Amazon AWS working on AI safety, large language models, and multimodal systems. I've spent the last decade building AI products from the ground up — from being the first AI hire at a healthcare startup where I built the entire ML team and infrastructure, to shipping production safety features used by tens of thousands of enterprise customers at AWS.
My background spans LLMs, NLP, evaluation frameworks, responsible AI, and medical AI. I've published at top venues including NAACL and WSDM.
I can help you with:
Building and launching AI/ML products — from research to production, including model development, evaluation, and shipping customer-facing features (I took healthcare LLMs from prototype to a deployed medical documentation product at DeepScribe) Building and shipping ML systems in production Breaking into AI/ML — navigating the field, building skills, and landing your first role Research and publications — scoping projects, writing papers, and getting work published Career transitions into applied science or ML engineering Navigating big tech — how to grow, get promoted, and make impact at companies like Amazon Graduate school — CMU grad, happy to talk about MS programs, applications, and research paths
