What I'm looking for

I seek senior roles building and deploying generative AI/LLM solutions with strong MLOps practices, collaborative product teams, and opportunities to scale impact.

I am a Senior Machine Learning Engineer with 12+ years designing, building, and deploying production-grade AI and ML solutions, specializing in Generative AI and large language models. I have led teams to develop LLM-powered applications for text generation, summarization, semantic search, and knowledge retrieval while integrating models into SaaS and enterprise workflows.

I established robust MLOps pipelines, optimized distributed training and inference across GPU/TPU clusters, and mentored engineers on GenAI best practices. My background spans NLP, computer vision, predictive analytics, data engineering, and cloud deployment across AWS, GCP, and Azure, enabling scalable, business-aligned ML solutions.
