What I'm looking for

I seek a hands-on role building scalable ML-backed backend systems in a collaborative, product-focused team with opportunities to own infrastructure and improve reliability.

I am a Python developer focused on backend architecture, machine learning, and AI integration, building scalable APIs and automating complex data workflows with technologies like FastAPI, TensorFlow, Docker, and Kubernetes.

At Urchin Systems I designed a cloud-run automation platform, re-architected ML training pipelines for Kubernetes with RabbitMQ, and implemented a RAG pipeline using OpenAI embeddings, FAISS, and MongoDB—driving measurable improvements in throughput, latency, and job reliability.

Previously at Farmora I progressed from intern to developer, delivering FastAPI services, ETL pipelines for satellite and IoT data, and integrating ML models into production—improving data reliability, model accuracy, and resource efficiency.
