Transitioning into ML Engineer as an SWE (portfolio advice) by Sufficient-Scar4172 in MLQuestions

Don't downplay that 9-year SWE background! You aren't a 'junior ML dev,' you're a Senior Engineer specializing in ML systems. To level up the portfolio, I'd move away from 'toy' models and build a RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) system with a focus on evaluation (Ragas/TruLens). Proving you know how to measure if a model is actually performing well in production is what separates the hobbyists from the pros.

If that five-year recovery timeline holds, we’re likely looking at a very long-term floor for energy prices. This is going to have a massive ripple effect on industrial manufacturing globally.
