Franz Lee is a Senior AI Platform Engineer with 11 years of experience building low-latency, high-throughput AI systems—ranging from fraud detection pipelines processing 50K+ events/sec to research intelligence platforms serving 200K+ documents. He uniquely bridges streaming infrastructure (Kafka, Flink, AWS EKS) with an intelligence layer (RAG, LangGraph, stateful multi-agent orchestration), shipping both halves into production to deliver sub-100ms P99 latencies. His work reduced investigation times from tens of minutes to seconds through fast–slow path routing and hybrid retrieval (BM25 + vector search) optimizations. Previously he built zero-trust behavioral intelligence for enterprise security, improving detection accuracy and automating policy responses at scale. Based in College Park, MD, Franz is now open to AI Agent/Platform engineering roles and is particularly drawn to teams building the next layer of AI infrastructure. A subtle strength: he repeatedly operationalizes research-grade retrieval and agent workflows into production-grade autoscaled microservices.
