What I'm looking for

I want to build production-ready LLM and AI systems, design clean APIs, and deploy on GCP/AWS—working with teams that value rigorous evaluation, testing, and measurable model quality.

I’m a Software Engineer with 4 years of experience spanning fullstack development and AI engineering. I focus on Python and Go, building LLM-driven systems, designing and integrating APIs, and deploying solutions across GCP and AWS.

Most recently as a Technical Lead, I developed and fine-tuned AI models using SFT and RLHF, incorporating human-labeled feedback datasets, reward models, and policy optimization to improve decision-making and user alignment. I also built evaluation pipelines for an ADK agent, created custom testing and trading agents, verified code execution in Replit and Colab, and deployed APIs and AI agents to cloud environments.
