About

I’m an AI/ML engineer with extensive experience designing, developing, and deploying production-grade solutions across machine learning, deep learning, generative AI, and cloud-native environments. I specialize in end-to-end AI pipelines—from data ingestion and feature engineering to training, evaluation, deployment, and continuous monitoring—while focusing on reliability, scalability, and operational cost control.

I’ve built and led large-scale LLM-powered systems, including RAG pipelines, embeddings + vector search, semantic retrieval and re-ranking, prompt optimization, and agentic workflows with tool/function calling and human-in-the-loop safeguards. I also bring strong MLOps/LLMOps expertise (CI/CD, model/version lifecycle, observability, and performance/cost tracking) and a practical engineering mindset to turn complex enterprise requirements into maintainable, production-ready AI products.
