What I'm looking for

I seek a research or development role applying computer vision and ML to medical or industrial problems, within collaborative, innovation-driven teams offering impact and growth.

I am a dedicated researcher and Python backend developer with extensive hands-on experience in deep learning, computer vision, medical imaging AI, and data analysis. I combine research rigor with practical software and hardware prototyping to deliver impactful R&D solutions.

My career spans research associate roles and industry positions where I developed medical imaging segmentation models, computer-assisted preoperative planning tools, OSS/BSS campaign management solutions, and IoT prototypes. I have multiple conference publications, patents, and awards recognizing research excellence and presentation skills.

I collaborate across multidisciplinary teams, applying PyTorch/TensorFlow, OpenCV, FastAPI/Flask, and embedded vision hardware to bridge algorithm development and deployable systems. I seek opportunities to apply my expertise to challenging research and product development projects that improve clinical and industrial outcomes.
