Hi there! I'm Paul Molina, a self-taught software engineer with hands-on experience in full-stack development, AI/ML pipelines, and automation. I enjoy turning abstract problems into practical, scalable software solutions and delivering measurable business impact. At McKinsey, I built Python and Azure-based tools to extract insights from contracts and invoices, while automating internal workflows to improve reliability. I'm passionate about collaborating with cross-functional teams—AI researchers, data scientists, and consultants—to refine prompts, validation rules, and model behavior. I also bring experience in SaaS support, device provisioning, and client-facing problem solving, and I thrive on building tools that empower non-technical stakeholders to review complex data quickly.
