What I'm looking for

I seek remote roles where I can build production-ready AI applications using low-code platforms and Python, collaborate cross-functionally, mentor others, and drive measurable operational impact while working in an Agile, user-centered environment.

I am an AI application developer who designs and deploys lightweight, user-facing applications that operationalize advanced AI across enterprise workflows. With a Ph.D. and 5+ years of hands-on experience, I bridge analytics and operations to deliver practical AI solutions.

I specialize in low-code platforms like Power Apps and Power Automate, extending those solutions with Python and SQL for orchestration, integration, and performance. I build Python micro-apps (Streamlit, Flask, FastAPI) to visualize model outputs and validate AI results with end users.

My work has reduced manual processing effort by 35–45% and improved SLA compliance by 35% through AI-enabled claims, eligibility, and authorization applications. I support Agile delivery cycles with rapid prototyping, iterative feedback, testing, and production deployment support.

I prioritize user-centered design, usability, and accessibility while applying multi-tier, API-driven architectures and modern cloud/data platforms (Azure, AWS, Databricks-style environments). I mentor junior developers and apply SDLC best practices, CI/CD, and configuration management to move AI from notebooks into production-ready applications.
