From Full-Stack to AI Engineering

I started as a full-stack engineer building with React, Node.js and Go — shipping APIs, pipelines and dashboards that had to be fast, reliable and observable. That production discipline is the foundation of everything I do now.

Over the past three years I pivoted into data science and AI engineering: training and fine-tuning models, building RAG pipelines, and operationalizing ML in the same rigorous way I once shipped web services.

Currently focused on Large Language ModelsMLOps & Production MLPredictive Modeling.

Let's Build Something Intelligent

I'm currently open to senior AI/ML engineering roles — building LLM infrastructure, MLOps platforms, or production data science. If your team is solving interesting problems, let's talk.
