What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can build and deploy ML/GenAI systems end-to-end, collaborate in product-focused teams, and continue learning in a supportive, growth-oriented environment.

I am a third-year Computer Science and Engineering student with hands-on experience building end-to-end AI systems, FastAPI deployments, and GenAI architectures such as RAG. I designed and deployed containerized AI backends, fine-tuned models for sentiment analysis, and implemented hybrid retrieval and reranking techniques to personalize user experiences.

I contributed to decision-support research using synthetic datasets, applied logistic regression, Markov models and Monte Carlo simulations, and co-founded an AI-powered startup accepted to a top incubation program. I also volunteer as an AI instructor, have software development internship experience with ASP.NET and MS SQL, and speak fluent English and intermediate German.
