Senior Machine Learning Engineer building scalable, production-ready ML systems with MLOps.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Machine Learning Engineer with 7+ years of experience developing and deploying scalable ML systems in production. I focus on automating ML workflows, optimizing development-to-deployment pipelines, and improving reliability once models are live.
At CrowdStrike, I developed and maintained internal automation tools for ML workflow orchestration in Python, managed CI/CD pipelines for ML model testing and deployment, and containerized ML applications with Docker. I deploy and monitor models in Kubernetes clusters, troubleshoot inference latency issues, and apply cloud security best practices to protect data and model assets.
Previously at Aleph Alpha and Bitdefender, I engineered low-latency model deployment frameworks, automated data validation and feature engineering, and built monitoring solutions to track model drift and performance degradation. I also developed modular Python code for inference services, orchestrated training pipelines with Kubernetes, and supported ETL pipelines feeding into BigQuery.
I bring a full-lifecycle mindset—from experimentation to deployment and ongoing maintenance—backed by strong engineering discipline. I write comprehensive unit and integration tests, collaborate closely with data scientists and DevOps to establish secure deployment patterns, and communicate insights through dashboards for stakeholders.
Experience
Work history, roles, and key accomplishments
Developed internal Python automation tools for ML workflow orchestration and improved team efficiency. Managed ML CI/CD, containerized services with Docker, deployed models to Kubernetes, and built BigQuery reporting pipelines for model performance metrics.
Engineered scalable, low-latency model deployment frameworks and automated data validation and feature engineering within pipelines. Implemented monitoring for model drift, orchestrated training pipelines on Kubernetes, and delivered Looker dashboards fed by ETL into BigQuery.
Machine Learning Engineer
Bitdefender
Feb 2019 - Jul 2021 (2 years 5 months)
Built Python automation to package and version ML models, and managed Docker-based ML microservices for consistent environments. Supported CI/CD with automated retraining and validation, deployed models to cloud serving infrastructure with health checks, and created SQL-driven training datasets.
Developed production-grade Python modules for data processing and feature generation, including basic Docker-based containerization. Built simple dashboards, executed SQL queries for datasets, supported CI pipelines and code reviews, and helped scale ML inference for higher request loads.
