What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that fosters innovation and collaboration, where I can leverage my AI expertise to drive impactful projects and contribute to a forward-thinking team.

I am an accomplished software engineer with over 11 years of experience in leading full-stack AI and machine learning development across both startup and enterprise environments. My expertise lies in building and deploying large-scale natural language processing (NLP), large language models (LLM), and computer vision systems on cloud platforms such as AWS, GCP, and Azure, utilizing modern DevOps practices including Docker and Kubernetes. I have a proven track record of driving product vision and scalability, having spearheaded AI initiatives at startups like Mapped, and successfully delivered secure, HIPAA-compliant solutions in the healthcare sector.

Throughout my career, I have specialized in LLM orchestration and multi-agent architectures using LangChain and LangGraph. I excel at translating complex requirements into technical architectures, mentoring engineering teams, and delivering high-impact AI products from inception to deployment. My work on projects like MappedGPT and Anaxi has not only improved query development times and response latencies but also significantly enhanced user engagement and data access workflows.
