Erika Russi developed robust document processing solutions across two IBM repositories, focusing on retrieval-augmented generation and unstructured data conversion. For ibm-granite-community/granite-snack-cookbook, Erika replaced legacy document loaders with the Docling library, enabling multi-format ingestion and improving pipeline reliability using Python and Langchain. In IBM/ibmdotcom-tutorials, Erika created a Jupyter Notebook and tutorial that convert scanned documents into structured, analytics-ready data, incorporating Docling for ETL workflows and providing detailed setup and data structuring guidance. Erika’s work emphasized maintainability, clarity, and streamlined onboarding, demonstrating depth in data processing, documentation, and machine learning integration within production-grade pipelines.
