  • Designed and implemented an end-to-end RAG pipeline — query rewriting, classification / routing, retrieval, streaming answer generation, and citation resolution.
  • Built hybrid retrieval over a Weaviate vector DB: semantic + BM25 keyword search fused with Reciprocal Rank Fusion and reranked with a cross-encoder.
  • Engineered grounded answer generation with Claude — structured output with inline citations resolved back to source document, page, and excerpt.
  • Implemented hallucination prevention: verification model flags unsupported claims with confidence scoring.
  • Added a semantic caching layer (Redis, cosine similarity) to cut latency and cost on repeat queries; enforced strict multi-tenant isolation across retrieval and caching.
