## Person

- **Name**: Suraj Paliwal
- **Level**: Middle
- **Summary**: A Middle-level Python ML/GenAI engineer focused on lightweight RAG chat applications and embedding-based search. The strongest proven skill is building end-to-end RAG prototypes combining BM25, dense embeddings and a vector store as implemented in search_engine.py and the build_context logic. Public code shows limited production hardening - secrets are in source, there are no tests, and operational concerns like retries, structured logging and CI are not evidenced.
