What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a team where I can build and deploy applied AI—LLMs, GNNs, and speech systems—with strong engineering practices, fast experimentation, and clear impact from prototype to production.

I’m a Data Scientist & ML Engineer focused on translating AI research into scalable, real-world solutions. My background includes an MS in Data Science & AI from the Asian Institute of Technology (AIT), and an engineering foundation in Electrical Communication Engineering from UET Peshawar.

I build end-to-end machine learning systems with PyTorch and modern AI frameworks, with hands-on deployment experience using FastAPI and production tooling like Docker and Nginx. I’ve developed LLM applications (including GPT-2 fine-tuning with DPO/RLHF alignment) and built retrieval-augmented generation pipelines with LangChain and RAG for grounded Q&A.

On the research side, I co-authored the published ADAPTIVE medical speech dataset for acoustic dysarthria detection, and I designed and trained an STGCN model to forecast influenza activity across 8 ASEAN countries—achieving R² = 0.93 and outperforming multiple classical and ML baselines. I also bring strong applied interests across speech AI, graph neural networks, and production-ready ML workflows.
