PROFILE
Romain Perennes
Romain Perennes contributed to the ThalesGroup/fred repository by engineering robust document processing and retrieval workflows over a four-month period. He refactored the RAG pipeline into a modular state-graph architecture using Python and Pydantic, improving maintainability and troubleshooting. Romain also developed a semantic document chunking system with PDF table annotation, enhancing large document indexing and search. He standardized contributor guidelines and commit practices to streamline onboarding and code quality. Additionally, he implemented an automated testing framework for RAG agents using RAGAS, integrating CI/CD and CLI argument parsing. His work demonstrated depth in backend development, configuration management, and LLM integration.

Oct 1, 2025October 2025: Delivered an automated testing framework for RAG agents (RAGAS) within the ThalesGroup/fred repo, enabling end-to-end evaluation of embedding models and agent configurations. Implemented embedding model setup, agent configuration, evaluation launch functions, and CLI argument parsing, accompanied by README documentation for the script. The work reduces manual testing time, increases regression coverage, and provides a CI-ready workflow for validating RAG agent behavior. The primary commit advancing this work is 94d6e14daf3feea4d7ca73d2a355d22accab5cb8 (Adding automated tests to evaluate rag agents #645).

Aug 1, 2025In 2025-08, delivered a major refactor and stability fixes for the ThalesGroup/fred RAG workflow, emphasizing robustness, modularity, and scalable architecture. Key outcomes: (1) Replaced monolithic RAG core with a state-graph architecture featuring dedicated nodes for document retrieval, grading, generation, and query rewriting; introduced Pydantic models for state/output to improve validation and maintainability. (2) Fixed Rico/RicoPro agent stability and naming mismatches, eliminating an infinite loop when no documents are found and ensuring correct agent identification across variants. These changes were implemented with commits ee9ea08f4a679052c9bb9ab34cf557fd222bdf9d, 0cafa5660b69b0a5f9015bc4ae1f4a04bc42c366, and adc1450dbbb35433cee3f996dde36868a0ad261d. (3) Result: a more reliable, extensible RAG pipeline, reduced troubleshooting time, and clearer ownership of components. Business value: higher uptime, better user experience, easier onboarding for future enhancements.
