Sabrina Mielke is a Machine Learning Engineer specializing in large language models with 12 years of experience bridging academic research and industry applications. She holds a PhD from Johns Hopkins and has applied LLMs to biotech drug discovery at Genentech after roles at AlphaSense, Cohere, and internships at Google AI, FAIR, and Hugging Face. Her work spans research, production engineering, and teaching—she designed and taught an AI course at JHU and contributed to the ParlAI dialogue framework, improving dataset pipelines for Squad2, TriviaQA, and Wizard of Wikipedia. Comfortable in both research and product contexts, she has published and collaborated on tokenization and conversational calibration research while shipping practical model tooling. Based in New York, she combines deep NLP expertise with hands‑on data and training pipeline work, often focusing on making models safer and better calibrated. An understated strength is her history of building reproducible dataset and preprocessing fixes that quietly enable more reliable downstream model evaluation.
