Hi there! I'm Adil Sarfani, a Senior AI/ML engineer with a passion for building scalable AI systems. I enjoy turning complex challenges into practical, production-ready solutions, from data pipelines to model deployment and monitoring. I mentor engineers and explore new AI techniques in my spare time, always aiming to turn business problems into reliable AI-powered outcomes. In recent roles I led AI initiatives at Nike and Urbint, focusing on large-scale generative AI, computer vision, and risk intelligence, collaborating with product and engineering teams to deliver measurable impact. I thrive in fast-paced, collaboration-heavy environments and love mentoring colleagues while pushing the boundaries of what's possible with AI. I’m excited to continue shaping the next generation of intelligent, responsible software that scales with business needs.
