Pfizer Advanced: AI-Powered Document Insights & Data Extraction Externship

Prototype AI-powered document intelligence with Pfizer—using OCR, LLMs, and RAG to automate real enterprise PDF workflows and build a standout portfolio project.

AI & MLPythonDocument IntelligencePresentation Skills

Overview

This externship prototyped an AI document-intelligence pipeline combining OCR, large language models, and retrieval-augmented generation to process enterprise PDFs. The work reviewed LLM fundamentals and their role inside a document-extraction pipeline, and produced technical artifacts used across the prototype.
