What I'm looking for

I’m interested in practical applications of AI in multilingual and cross-cultural contexts.

In my freelance and contract work, I develop and fine-tune NLP models for chatbots and recommendation systems using Python, PyTorch, and LangChain.

I build backend APIs with FastAPI and Django, and implement Docker-based deployment pipelines with PostgreSQL integration. I deliver ML solutions from data preprocessing through model deployment for clients in Eastern Europe and Southeast Asia.

My final project at Odesa National Polytechnic University was a conversational AI system supporting Ukrainian and Vietnamese. I’m interested in practical AI applications in multilingual and cross-cultural contexts.
