What I'm looking for

I seek a role where I can lead and build scalable AI/data platforms, deliver production ML systems, and drive product impact in a collaborative, growth-focused team.

I am a data scientist and data engineering leader with a track record of designing AI-driven data platforms, production-grade scraping and enrichment systems, and scalable ML/LLM pipelines. I have led data and analytics teams to deliver generative-AI powered products, BI platforms, and automation that improved customer experience and operational efficiency.

My hands-on background spans end-to-end data systems, from building ScrapeFlow and Lingo libraries to deploying analytics platforms and chatbots; I combine strong engineering discipline with product-focused analytics to deliver reliable, scalable data solutions across global markets.
