What I'm looking for

I seek roles focused on NLP/LLMs and end-to-end ML systems where I can solve hard problems, lead projects, mentor teams, and deliver production-grade models.

I am a Machine Learning Engineer and Data Scientist with deep expertise in structured data, NLP, and large language models. I build end-to-end ML systems using Python, PyTorch, TensorFlow and HuggingFace, and I reverse-engineer transformer internals to design robust solutions from first principles.

As a Kaggle Competitions Expert and team leader, I have top finishes and collaborative experience with world-class competitors, delivering production-grade NLP, CV, and ML projects, mentoring learners, and contributing educational content and open-source implementations.
