What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation, collaboration, and growth, where I can leverage my expertise in data science to drive impactful solutions.

I am a strategic and results-oriented Senior Data Scientist with over 8 years of experience in building and deploying scalable machine learning, deep learning, NLP, and LLM-based solutions across the financial and technology sectors. My specialization lies in forecasting and prediction algorithms, as well as unstructured data processing using modern ML pipelines. I pride myself on being a collaborative and adaptable communicator, backed by a strong academic foundation and a proven track record of delivering impactful, production-ready solutions.

In my current role at SimCorp, I fine-tuned LLMs, achieving a 10% improvement in prediction accuracy through the analysis of 100K financial documents. I designed an AI-driven Help Assistant that reduced client support latency by 20% and developed deep learning time series forecasting models that improved asset performance predictions by 5%. My experience also includes automating the ML deployment lifecycle, which has significantly increased operational stability and reduced deployment cycles by more than half.

Previously, as an Artificial Intelligence Researcher at SumUp Analytics, I created advanced unsupervised learning pipelines and designed an NLP architecture that integrated sentiment analysis and entity recognition. My work has consistently focused on enhancing model interpretability and ensuring that machine learning models align with regulatory standards and business goals. I am passionate about leveraging my skills to drive innovation and deliver value in data-driven environments.
