What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can build secure, production-grade AI systems—especially RAG and agentic workflows—owning end-to-end delivery (infra, backend, security) and collaborating with teams that value clear communication.

I’m a Chief Technology Officer and AI Engineer focused on taking AI-driven products from architecture through production—covering backend, infrastructure, and security. I translate complex technical work for non-technical stakeholders while moving teams from design to deployment.

As Co-Founder & CTO of Ratee, I own end-to-end security and DevOps for the production infrastructure, including Docker-based deployment and CI/CD via GitHub Actions. I also designed and built the Flutter mobile application and oversaw the Django backend, while deploying the marketing website with Next.js.

At SIKDS (MESRS), I architected and implemented an end-to-end RAG pipeline with Redis-backed asynchronous job processing, OCR fallback, task-aware embedding optimization, semantic reranking, and a path toward response streaming. I also reviewed the security architecture and authored document-protection features such as signed PDF watermarking and canary tokens for download traceability.

Earlier, I led development on a secure desktop ERP using React, Tailwind CSS, and Tauri, including hardware-bound database encryption. I’ve also run cybersecurity workshops as a student leader, and I bring that security mindset into agentic systems—designing guardrails to mitigate prompt-injection and jailbreak attempts.
