Blake Martin

@blakemartin1

Senior AI/ML engineer specializing in generative AI, LLMs, and production-grade MLOps.

What I'm looking for

I seek senior AI/ML roles building production LLM and MLOps platforms at companies valuing scalability, observability, and cross-functional collaboration; prefer cloud-native environments and impact on product outcomes.

I am a Senior Python AI/ML Engineer with over 10 years building and deploying production-grade machine learning systems and 6+ years focused on Generative AI, LLMs, and RAG. I have driven high-impact AI platforms across healthcare, fintech, and edtech, delivering measurable business value through scalable, observable ML and LLM systems.

I design and deploy Hugging Face transformer pipelines, embeddings and vector-search RAG solutions, and LLM-powered microservices on cloud-native infrastructure. I specialize in MLOps/LLMOps—CI/CD, model versioning, monitoring, and automated retraining—to ensure reliable, low-latency production systems that reduce deployment time and model degradation.
