What I'm looking for

I'm looking to push boundaries in health and fitness technology, using scalable, privacy-preserving machine learning to create meaningful user impact.

I've built end-to-end machine learning systems, recommendation algorithms, and experimentation frameworks at Strider Technologies and BigBear.ai, translating relevance and ranking improvements into stronger user engagement and retention.

I design privacy-first, scalable ML architecture using AWS, Terraform, Docker, and Kubernetes, and I connect production models through secure APIs and reliable testing practices. I've also mentored engineers, established data governance and ML deployment standards, and developed healthcare predictive analytics, educational web applications, and embedded health-monitoring systems.
