   Field AI Engineer / IT & Billing Manager (Contract) · RIVUS Consulting LLC

   • Scoped and delivered an end-to-end AI automation suite for 6+ government contracts: clarified requirements, defined the technical approach, and shipped production Python automation, cutting invoice prep from roughly 3 days to under a day.

3. Nov 2023 – Mar 2026

   Program Manager · Qalam Institute

   Dallas, TX
