About this Product

A farm lender's credit officers spend about 20 minutes searching policy versions and one farmer's records for every mixed question, and no answer can be signed off without a source.

What you build

  • Ingestion and index: validates 28 synthetic policy files, quarantines bad or injected ones and stores parent child chunks in LanceDB.
  • Hybrid retrieval: dense and BM25 search fused with RRF, filtered by as of date and user role, then cross encoder reranking.
  • Context and answers: a token budgeted context of passages plus farm facts, with money figures and risk scores computed in code, returning cited answers for officer sign off.
  • Guardrails: input, retrieval and output checks, branch access control, PII redaction and escalation rules.
  • API and evaluation: a FastAPI service with audit and metrics, plus an evaluation CLI with a golden set and a regression gate.

Skills you practise

  • Advanced RAG: contextual parent child chunks, hybrid search and an evidence gate that refuses unsupported questions.
  • Reranking and context engineering: measure the lift from reranking, then order passages in a versioned prompt.
  • Evaluation and guardrails: ablation matrix, guardrail attack sets and an eval gate that blocks regressions.
  • Production engineering: degradation paths when a reranker, index or LLM fails, plus rate limits and a load test.

Outcome

  • Measured copilot: cited answers with retrieval, faithfulness and refusal numbers on a held out split.
  • Portfolio evidence: architecture diagrams, ADRs, an eval report and a runbook you can present in an interview.
