United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I am a Senior AI/ML and Python backend engineer with over 10 years building scalable, production-grade machine learning systems and cloud-native backend architectures.
I design and deploy agentic AI systems and RAG pipelines using FastAPI, LangChain, Hugging Face, TensorFlow, and PyTorch, and I optimize inference and backend performance through Kubernetes and asynchronous API design.
I have led cross-functional teams, mentored junior engineers, and delivered measurable outcomes — reducing processing time by 45%, accelerating model deployment by 30%, and improving delivery efficiency by 25%.
I am passionate about MLOps, data engineering, and integrating LLM-driven workflows into enterprise software to drive ROI and operational automation.
