Personnel Technician III
|Performed full-cycle human resources work in a high-accountability institutional environment.
- Performed full-cycle human resources work including recruiting, interviewing, background checks, onboarding, benefits coordination, and personnel transactions.
- Hired and processed 110 employees across security, healthcare, behavioral health, and IT roles, helping the institution become the first to achieve full staffing and delivering orientation to new correctional officer recruits.
- Working toward product-facing edge AI systems built on ONNX Runtime and PyTorch, with evaluation loops, quantization-aware local inference, and practical deployment kept grounded in real software delivery.
- Building intuition around LoRA and QLoRA adapter patterns for compact open families suited to edge or workstation deployment, especially Gemma 4 / Gemma 3n, Qwen3, and Phi-4 mini or multimodal lines.
- Most interested in privacy-first assistants, structured note processing, on-device personalization, offline copilots, and developer tools that keep sensitive data local rather than defaulting to cloud exposure.
- Current compact-model attention is on Gemma 4 and Gemma 3n for efficient open deployment, Qwen3 for modern reasoning and multilingual capability, and Phi-4 mini / multimodal families for smaller-footprint local workflows.
