At INSTANT SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS, I built end-to-end machine learning and deep learning pipelines, from data preprocessing and feature engineering through evaluation and deployment. I also prototyped LLM solutions using retrieval-augmented generation, prompt engineering, and embedding-based search.

On my Codebase Q&A Assistant project, I developed a Dockerized tool for natural-language queries over Git repositories, with file-level citations. It uses Tree-sitter for code chunking, Qdrant for vector search, and locally hosted LLMs through Ollama.

For my Intelligent UAV Distraction Avoidance System graduation project, I fine-tuned a pre-trained YOLOv6 model for object classification and localization in drone imagery and video. I handled dataset annotation, parameter optimization, and evaluation.

At RPM - RESEARCH PROJECT MANAGEMENT, I led the robotics control team for the Minesweeper Competition 2022, developing ROS-based navigation and movement solutions. I’m currently pursuing a Master’s Degree in Artificial Intelligence and Robotics at Sapienza Università di Roma, and I’m looking to ship real AI products while continuing to grow as an engineer.
