Fahad Mushtaq, Lahore, Pakistan

I’m a full-stack AI engineer. I build RAG assistants, LLM guardrails and the React and Node.js products around them.

10+ years in software engineering. I work end to end, from AI pipelines and REST APIs to production React and Next.js apps.

Work

Three systems I’ve built, described by what they do. Client systems stay confidential, so the healthcare work is shown as an architecture diagram.

A RAG assistant inside a patient records system that answers physicians’ questions with cited sources, and says so when it can’t answer.

  • RAG
  • Guardrails
  • LLM evaluation
  • React
Read the case study : AI assistant for a clinical records system
Clinical AI assistant: request pathA physician's question passes input guardrails, then retrieval runs semantic search over chunked, embedded source content. The LLM writes an answer from what was retrieved. A grounding check either returns a cited answer, or, when confidence is low, falls back to saying it can't answer. Evaluation and monitoring watch the model and the answers in production.PhysicianquestionInput checksvalidate, maskRetrievalsemantic searchSourcesvectorsLLMdrafts answerGroundingcheckFallbackno answerCited answerlinks to sourceEvaluation, monitoringrelevance, faithfulness

Experience

  1. 2020 – now

    Senior AI Full-Stack Engineer, Persivia

    USA, remote

    • Built a RAG clinical assistant that gives physicians source-cited answers using chunking, embeddings and semantic search.
    • Implemented AI safety guardrails: input and output validation, sensitive-data protection, grounded-answer checks and low-confidence fallbacks.
    • Set up LLM evaluation and monitoring to track answer relevance, faithfulness and accuracy in production.
    • Built a real-time escalation dashboard that uses LLM summarization to surface critical items, SLA risks and owners, with live updates over WebSockets.
    • Built a reusable React component library adopted across multiple modules.
    • Lead full-stack development of the core platform, including front-end modules, REST API integrations and legacy modernization, and mentor the team through code review.

What people I’ve worked with say

“Fahad's expertise in React and component architecture is impressive. He built a scalable, reusable component library that our entire team adopted — clean code, consistent design system, and zero headaches.”
Sohaib Amjad
“Fahad took our outdated frontend and rebuilt it in React from the ground up. The performance improvement was immediate and the codebase was clean, well-structured, and easy for the rest of the team to maintain.”
Andrew Yun
