What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation, encourages growth, and values collaboration.

I am a generalist Software Engineer with over six years of experience specializing in backend development, machine learning systems, and cloud infrastructure. My journey has been marked by a commitment to bridging technical development with business strategy, as demonstrated in my current role at Private AI, where I led the integration with NVIDIA NeMo Guardrails to enhance our partnership and expand the market reach of LLM applications.

Throughout my career, I have consistently focused on optimizing processes and enhancing system capabilities. At FireVisor Systems, I developed a robust image processing library that improved accuracy by 25%, and I built a data processing pipeline that handled over 1 billion RPC requests monthly. My technical leadership extends to mentoring junior developers and implementing best practices that elevate team performance.

My passion for continuous learning is reflected in my open-source contributions to projects like Kubernetes and NVIDIA. I thrive in environments that challenge me to innovate and grow, and I am eager to bring my expertise to new opportunities that allow me to make a significant impact.
