What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an engineering role where I can ship reliable AI and software—combining prompt engineering with rigorous testing and data-driven iteration, ideally working on practical systems (including computer vision) in a collaborative, agile team.

I’m a Prompt Engineer with Outlier AI, where I “Designed, tested, and optimized advanced prompt strategies” for “large language models (LLMs) and multi-modal AI systems.” I’ve built “high-quality… prompts” to keep outputs “consistent, on-brand,” and I’ve “collaborated with clients including Meta and Google Gemini” to refine prompt frameworks.

Before that, I worked at Roca Robotics as a Robotics Technician and then in “a newly created hardware QA role.” I “developed the entire quality assurance program from the OpenCV ground up,” created “hardware inspection checklists,” and used “data analysis and tracking” to reduce hardware errors and speed delivery.

Across roles, I’m energized by quality, reliability, and iteration—whether it’s “software testing,” “technical documentation,” or API/system improvements. I bring hands-on experience with Python, FastAPI, Django, and computer vision workflows, paired with an agile mindset from weekly sprints.
