I've built production GenAI, machine learning, and cloud systems at Datadog, Netflix, Stripe, and HealthEdge across media, fintech, and healthcare. My work spans LLMs, NLP, computer vision, real-time data pipelines, and AI products designed for enterprise environments.

At Datadog, I architect Generative AI and LLM frameworks for content tagging and metadata generation, retrieval-augmented generation pipelines, and AI agentic solutions for the Axon platform. I manage the ML lifecycle with Databricks and CI/CD tooling while building scalable back-end integrations with Django and Flask.

At Netflix, I improved personalization and ranking through PyTorch models and contextual bandits, built computer vision workflows for 4K Originals, and created high-throughput Spark pipelines for recommendation features. Earlier at Stripe, I supported payment APIs, fraud detection with Stripe Radar, identity verification, and ML deployment automation across AWS infrastructure.

I've also built AI-ready healthcare data platforms, clinical NLP modules, feature stores, and privacy controls aligned with HIPAA and GDPR. I enjoy combining deep learning, distributed systems, MLOps, and technical leadership to deliver reliable AI systems at scale.
