Tayyaba is an expert AI Product Engineer with a proven track record of architecting end-to-end document intelligence systems and graph-based RAG platforms using AWS Bedrock and LangChain. She excels at bridging the gap between product vision and technical execution, delivering high-performance conversational AI and automated workflows for global clients.

Experience

Senior AI Engineer

Next Generation InnovationsKarachi, PakistanworkJun 2025 – Present

Summary

Architected and built Arro, an AI-powered document intelligence system, end to end - owning system architecture, technical decisions, and delivery from design through production. Built Arro's Python pipeline to extract, classify, and structure large volumes of unstructured email and multi-format documents using AWS Bedrock LLMs (Claude, Llama), with named-entity extraction and confidence-scored validation. Designed guardrails for LLM outputs: confidence thresholds, schema validation, and data monitoring to keep AI-generated results accurate and safe to act on, reducing manual review effort. Architected natural-language search and conversational querying on AWS OpenSearch and Knowledge Bases, plus a RAG pipeline that turns unstructured content into decision-ready JSON for business stakeholders.

What I did

  • Developed an AI-first application where document parsing is the primary requirement.

Product Lead

Early-Stage StudiosRemote, UKworkDec 2024 – Jun 2025

Summary

Owned the entire product as Product Lead, translating product vision into technical plans, priorities, and releases. Architected the platform's foundational system design, setting the technical base the product was built on. Designed and built a graph-based RAG system combining knowledge-graph relationships with semantic retrieval to deliver more accurate, context-aware LLM answers.

What I did

  • Enabled responses to hierarchical and complex questions by implementing a graph structure.

Results

  • Completed the application in 6 months, split into two 3-month phases.
  • Achieved approximately 70% higher accuracy with graph-based RAG compared to vector-based RAG.

Software Engineer

WavetecKarachi, PakistanworkJun 2023 – May 2025
Took a multilingual, user-facing conversational AI product on WhatsApp from concept to launch, integrating OpenAI and Whisper APIs to automate voice-based banking workflows for end customers. Achieved sub-10-second response times through LangChain- and MCP-based agentic context management and token optimisation. Delivered an avatar-based helpdesk assistant powered by Google Gemini (Vertex AI) and Dialogflow, with real-time face detection for interactive, human-like support. Owned CI/CD pipelines, Git-based workflows, and Docker deployments, implementing automated release and monitoring processes to keep production AI services reliable.
