About

I am a Machine Learning Engineer with over three years of experience delivering production-grade NLP and ML solutions. I have hands-on expertise in transformer fine-tuning using Hugging Face, vector search implementations with FAISS, and deploying FastAPI services. My passion lies in building scalable Retrieval-Augmented Generation systems and managing end-to-end MLOps workflows, especially in cloud environments.

Throughout my career, I have built LLM chatbots, sentiment classifiers, and optimization models, often utilizing Docker and MLflow for efficient deployment. I enjoy applying techniques like LoRA and distillation to optimize inference for limited compute scenarios and have a strong foundation in operations research to optimize business processes. I am open to relocation and eager to contribute to innovative AI-driven projects.
