David Douglas

I am an AI/ML and full-stack engineer with over five years of experience building production-grade systems that combine deep learning, NLP, computer vision, and modern full-stack development. I design and deploy cloud-native services, cross-platform mobile apps, and CI/CD pipelines that accelerate product delivery and reliability.

At Uber I led design and implementation of MappedGPT and the Anaxi chatbot, improving data lookup efficiency, answer relevance, and correct tool invocation while deploying scalable vector search and observability to raise uptime. I architect end-to-end NLP pipelines and integrate analytical execution into conversational workflows to deliver measurable user satisfaction gains.

Previously at Davidayo I spearheaded computer vision solutions for retail, sentiment-analysis pipelines, and real-time logistics analytics that drove significant reductions in manual work and delays while increasing customer satisfaction. I deployed models and services with Docker, Kubernetes, and MLflow to ensure reproducibility and rapid, reliable releases.

I enjoy collaborating across product, data science, and engineering teams, mentoring junior engineers, and iterating on models and systems to achieve business impact—reducing errors, improving precision, and delivering actionable insights in production environments.
