What I'm looking for

I seek roles building AI-driven backend systems and automation in collaborative, product-focused teams where I can apply scalable architectures, improve efficiency, and drive measurable business impact.

I am a business-focused Senior AI and Software Engineer with 9+ years of experience and a B.S. in Computer Science, passionate about turning advanced AI into reliable, high-impact business solutions.

I design and build AI-driven platforms, scalable backend systems, and workflow automation using Python, FastAPI, Flask, Spring Boot, and cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP).

My work includes developing Generative AI and NLP solutions (OpenAI GPT, Google Gemini, Claude, Hugging Face, BERT), AI Agents, OCR and computer vision (YOLO, MediaPipe), and orchestrating CI/CD with Docker, Kubernetes, and GitHub Actions to improve efficiency and reliability.

I have a strong track record of reducing manual work and errors through automation and AI—examples include improving workflow efficiency by 45% and reducing manual tasks by 60%—and I prioritize clean architecture, testing automation, and secure, scalable system design.
