What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a Junior Python, AI, machine learning, computer vision, or backend role where I can build practical LLM, retrieval, automation, and data-driven products while growing through hands-on engineering work.

At Brandzone, I trained a YOLOv8 product-detection model for insert images and selected PaddleOCR to detect and recognize text, matching product-related text with product images.

I've built practical Python AI projects including hybrid and multi-document RAG systems, agentic coding workflows, multi-agent debate systems, and LLM-powered PostgreSQL retrieval. My projects use retrieval, semantic search, FAISS, Hugging Face models, Ollama, LangChain, LangGraph, and Django REST Framework.

I also built a complete Kivy/KivyMD mobile application over roughly eight months, using PostgreSQL, Pyrebase4, Flask, psycopg2, threading, sockets, and JSON.
