Abdullah Memon

AI Engineer

I design LLM systems for production and decide by measurement. The method is fixed before each test, the results are published including what failed, and the design changes on what they show. My work spans the stack, from model serving and retrieval to the product users see, in Python and TypeScript.

On client products I also ran the servers, deployments, databases and security incidents. Each one shipped with an admin panel, role-based access and documentation, so the founder could run it without me.

Experience

AI Engineer, Memon Systems Ltd

Jun 2026 – present

UK. Independent R&D lab. Remote

  • Built a verifier that catches wrong statements in LLM answers as they are written. It checks each sentence against its source and rewrites the ones that fail. On UK law questions it cut answers containing a wrong statement by up to 86%, while still answering at least 93% of questions. The package is on PyPI. code and results
  • Tested Qwen 27B, self-hosted on one GPU, against the Jev and OpenAI decision APIs as a sentence judge, on 513 hand-graded sentences. On the first test it scored 93.8%, against 90.7% and 89.0%. method and results
  • Built a router that sends a legal question to the exact law it cites, before any search runs and without calling a model. Across 1,897 real citations it never picked the wrong law, and declined the 4% it could not place. code and results
  • Designed private retrieval for legal AI. Client data stays on the laptop, and the cloud serves public law without learning which laws were looked up. In a test on one client matter, standard cloud RAG leaked the client's identity, employer, dates and salary, and this design leaked none. design and results

  • Built an email verification pipeline in mid 2025 that put accuracy ahead of speed, sending every address the fast checks could not settle to a full mailbox check.

Why Closed Frontier APIs Fail at Legal AI, 10:16 to 12:11. The verifier checks each sentence as it is generated, rolls back a contradiction and regenerates it from the statute text, and after three retries shows the user which sentence has no support.

Jake Cheung, Cambridge, UK

Finding someone who consistently complies with all your requirements is not easy... However, I was lucky having Abdullah working on my project, which he accomplished with dignity. I am happy he continues constant support of the application he developed for our company.

Giorgi Lekiashvili, Best Shop Group, Tbilisi, Georgia

The knowledge he has of nodejs is beyond anything what I could've wished for. He did not only complete my project but improvised into making it much better.
