Work Experience

AI/ML Engineer — FS A SyncHub (Contractor) at South Geeks
July 1, 2026 - August 31, 2026
Architected an AI/ML mapping engine for a cloud-native pipeline migrating 10–15k maintenance records into SAP S/4HANA Plant Maintenance. Led data profiling (signal recoverability, language mix, completeness) and authored architecture proposals with ownership boundaries across SAP and full-stack teams. Performed feasibility analysis for multiple SAP PM classification/resolution targets across heterogeneous contractor datasets, and built a reproducible Python pipeline to profile XLSX/JSON/XML/PDF evidence by extracting text-code evidence and reconciling target-level signals. Defined an evidence framework separating runtime signals, validating mappings, and resolving unresolved cases prior to any model-performance claims. Implemented notebook-centric analysis with a modular Git/GitLab workflow producing repeatable, sanitized, and auditable outputs.
Senior ML / Back-End Engineer — Agentic Observability & Anomaly Detection Platform (Independent R&D) at Independent R&D Initiative
February 1, 2026 - July 31, 2026
Designed an industrial-grade POC combining ML, OpenTelemetry observability, distributed services, event-driven signals, and an agentic reasoning layer for incident analysis. Built two complementary ML pipelines: Isolation Forest for service-level anomaly scoring and HDBSCAN for temporal propagation clustering across simulated payment/checkouts/orders and Redis services. Transformed traces/spans/logs/metrics/latency/error rate/throughput/retry/dependency signals into structured, validated, feature-extracted, versioned ML datasets. Instrumented services with OpenTelemetry and used Redis Pub/Sub + Streams to decouple telemetry generation, detection, correlation, and agentic context construction. Implemented a skills-first agent layer that consumes compact context, evaluates evidence, supports root-cause hypotheses, applies confidence and policy gates, and produces auditable recommended actions, with containerized, testable components suitable for future Kafka/Flink/Kubernetes evolution.
AI & Machine Learning Developer at Inglidesk-Independent
September 2, 2025 - Present
Agentic Credit Approval System + Decision Platform (2025 – ongoing)>>>Architecture: Coordinator Agent (Block A) orchestrates Risk / Fraud / Payoff sub-agents; Decision Platform (RHPAM) encapsulates rules, decision tables, and governance, with a migration path to Kogito for event-driven microservices and ephemeral RHPAM where appropriate.
AI & Machine Learning Systems Developer — Credit Approval Decision Platform at Independent Project
September 1, 2025 - February 28, 2026
Planned and developed an end-to-end credit-approval decision system combining credit risk, fraud, and payoff models into a single auditable decision flow. Converted exploratory notebooks into production-minded training and inference scripts with versioned datasets, model artifacts, and internal benchmarks for model version comparisons. Built a policy-decider layer mapping model outputs and business rules into APPROVE/REVIEW/REJECT outcomes intended to integrate with BRMS-style workflows (e.g., Red Hat RH PAM). Containerized the workflow with Docker and prepared it for cloud-oriented deployment, including environment configuration, basic logging, and data contracts for downstream integration. Delivered multiple specialized XGBoost models and implemented an auditable ML+BRMS governed decision pipeline.
AI & Machine Learning Developer — IELTS Essay Scoring System at Independent Project
June 1, 2025 - September 30, 2025
Designed an automated IELTS essay scoring pipeline using a DeBERTa-based architecture to predict multiple traits (Task Response, Coherence & Cohesion, Lexical Resource, Grammar). Owned the full ML workflow including data cleaning, train/test splits, multi-head modeling, QWK/MAE evaluation, calibration, and aggregation into consistent band scores. Migrated from notebooks to scripted training and evaluation for reproducible experiments and easier integration into backend services or APIs. Ran experiments on Vertex AI and AWS SageMaker including data upload, training-job setup, logs, and artifact retrieval. Achieved strong agreement with human scoring and implemented temperature calibration and hybrid focal + cross-entropy training with appropriate stratified validation and early stopping.

    Agentic Credit Approval System + Decision Platform

    This project exhibits a Coordinator Agent (Block A) orchestrates Risk / Fraud / Payoff
    sub-agents y sync with a Decision Platform (RedHatPAM) that encapsulates rules, decision tables,
    and governance, with a migration path to Kogito for event-driven microservices and ephemeral RHPAM where appropriate.

    Why it matters: Design aligns with modern data products (low latency, backpressure
    tolerance, replayability), while BRMS provides explainability, policy,
    and audit required by stakeholders.

    IELTS Essay Scoring System
