What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an entry-level Data Science/AI role where I can deliver end-to-end work—analyze requirements, build GenAI/ML solutions, and validate quality through rigorous testing in an Agile team that values security and reliability.

I’m a Data Science and AI graduate who turns requirements into working, validated systems—especially where security, reliability, and performance matter. Through research internship work, I designed and executed functional, integration, regression, and end-to-end test scenarios while ensuring cryptographic integrity and traceable auditability for distributed clients.

In parallel, I’ve delivered AI/tech advisory by translating business needs into scalable solutions, including ROI analysis for smart contract deployment and support across multi-pipeline security environments. I also build practical ML and GenAI projects—like a PyPI-published preprocessing library and a from-scratch 15M-parameter Transformer—grounding my work in Agile planning, SDLC discipline, and strong QA checkpoints.
