What I'm looking for

I want to build scalable, reliable AI systems end-to-end—turning research ideas into production models with strong MLOps, monitoring, and automation. I’m looking for roles where I can lead lifecycle ownership and deliver measurable impact.

I’m a Senior Machine Learning & Software Engineer with 12+ years of experience architecting and delivering complex solutions across AI/ML, computer vision, backend infrastructure, and desktop applications. I specialize in NLP, computer vision, OCR, and MLOps, and I’m used to owning the full lifecycle—from data preprocessing through model deployment and monitoring.

Across SharkByte Consulting and White Peak Tech, I’ve led teams and built high-performance information extraction, document classification, and user-feedback-driven dataset workflows—driving measurable gains like 15%+ improvement in model retraining performance. I containerize and scale ML systems with Docker and Kubernetes, implement CI/CD for automated retraining and deployment, and develop robust model-serving backends (including REST APIs) to integrate AI into real products.
