What I'm looking for

I want to build end-to-end AI platforms with Python frameworks and deep learning—shipping agentic AI systems with strong DevOps, reliable CI/CD, and real end-user experience improvements.

I’m a Full-Stack & AI/ML Engineer with 7+ years of experience building scalable, cloud-native software and implementing state-of-the-art LLM, GenAI, Agentic AI, and NLP systems. I focus on end-to-end delivery—turning ingestion, retrieval, reasoning, and structured generation into reliable products.

At Microsoft, I designed and implemented the Dreaming Worker pipeline to analyze uploaded audio, PDFs, markdown, and DOCX, generating structured “Moments” and “Dreams” through LLM-powered workflows. I built a multi-tenant content ingestion system with SeaweedFS S3-compatible storage, NATS JetStream, and PostgreSQL/TiDB, developed retrieval pipelines (chunking, embedding, search), and engineered agentic workflow patterns with Pydantic validation for schema compliance—enhancing developer experience with async I/O, structured logging, and streaming responses. Previously at Silicon Labs, I supported ML/NLP and data engineering for decision-support workflows, contributed to a legal and financial document Q&A system using retrieval/summarization/structured response flows, and scaled distributed backend systems to 20,000 daily active users while improving request latency and throughput by 20–40% through refactoring, caching, and query optimization.
