What I'm looking for
I am a multidisciplinary engineer and technical leader with a strong foundation in machine learning, data infrastructure, and quantitative analytics. My experience includes scaling data functions, leading cross-functional teams, and delivering actionable insights that guide strategic decisions. I have a proven track record in building end-to-end AI solutions, including RAG-based systems, real-time predictive models, and high-performance data pipelines.
Currently, I serve as the Head of Data Science at Fingular, where I boosted approval rates by 25% and reduced risk by 15% through advanced modeling techniques. My previous roles include Senior Data Scientist at Coins.ph and Data Scientist at Société Générale, where I developed innovative risk assessment pipelines and corporate credit risk models.
