I am a multidisciplinary AI Engineer with over six months of hands-on experience at ICOG-LABS, specializing in AGI research and full-stack AI product development. I am passionate about leveraging my skills in machine learning, Python, and scalable system design to solve innovative challenges in audio signal processing, generative audio AI, and music information retrieval. I excel at rapidly prototyping and deploying machine learning models in production environments. I have experience developing consensus-based validation techniques that reduce false positives and building efficient full-stack applications with real-time large language model inference. I thrive in collaborative environments where I can present R&D progress, contribute to product roadmaps, and mentor junior developers. My technical expertise spans AI, full-stack development, QA automation, and cloud deployment, complemented by a solid foundation in software engineering and machine learning from my academic background and ongoing certification efforts.

Work Experience

AI Engineer Intern at ICOG-LABS
August 31, 2025 - August 21, 2025
During my 6-month internship at ICOG-LABS from March to August 2025, I developed a consensus-based validation system using Dual-LLMs (GPT-4 + Claude), reducing false positives by 35%. I benchmarked cost versus latency trade-offs across five LLMs. I built a full-stack AI product with React and FastAPI serving real-time LLM inference, deploying it on AWS Lambda with auto-scaling from 1,000 to 10,000 users. I also created automated QA pipelines with Playwright and integrated CI/CD workflows testing hallucination rates on every PR. Additionally, I presented bi-weekly R&D reports to leadership, influenced the product roadmap, and mentored two junior developers on LLM integration best practices.

During my 6-month internship, I contributed to Dual-LLM research by developing a consensus-based validation system combining GPT-4 and Claude, which reduced false positives by 35%. I benchmarked cost versus latency trade-offs across multiple LLMs, including Llama-2, GPT-4, and Claude-3. I built a full-stack AI product using React and FastAPI that served real-time LLM inference with Redis caching, improving speed by 40%, and deployed it on AWS Lambda with auto-scaling capabilities for up to 10,000 users. I created automated QA pipelines with Playwright and integrated CI/CD workflows to track hallucination rates on every pull request. Additionally, I presented bi-weekly R&D reports to leadership, influencing the product roadmap, and mentored two junior developers on best practices for LLM integration.
