I build scalable cloud, AI SaaS, and backend platforms for real-world operations.
CanadaWhat I'm looking for
I'm contributing to Québec Government cloud modernization initiatives while leading backend architecture for Jaser.ai, an AI-powered SaaS platform focused on workforce integration in Québec.
At Jaser.ai, I'm fine-tuning Llama, Mistral, and Qwen language models for Québec French while building scalable REST APIs, NLP pipelines, and cloud infrastructure.
At EauDici, I developed FastAPI and Node.js backend services for customer management, billing automation, and invoice generation. My work reduced operational costs by 85% and invoicing errors to under 1%.
Across independent consulting, DeliverApp, Apple, and the University of Ottawa, I've delivered SaaS platforms, mobile solutions, production support, and software development across the full lifecycle.
