What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can own production MLOps and backend pipelines end-to-end—scaling streaming data, deploying models with strong monitoring, and optimizing reliability, latency, and cost with measurable impact.

Building production-ready machine learning pipelines and scalable backend systems. Focused on MLOps, containerization, and automation to turn raw models into stable, highly available software.
