What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role building production-grade AI/ML systems (NLP, vision, RAG) in collaborative teams that value deployment, explainability, and growth.

I am a data science engineer with hands-on experience deploying AI and ML systems in production environments. My work spans computer vision, NLP, LLM integrations, and embedding-based semantic search, grounded in strong programming and data engineering skills.

At DEWA I integrated edge hardware with real-time YOLO pipelines, built Postgres+pgvector embedding stores, and enabled natural-language querying over research publications using OpenAI and Qwen models. I also led large-scale data cleaning, ETL, and auditing efforts to improve research data quality.

As project lead for Solaris AI I improved forecasting accuracy by migrating models from ANN to LSTM, reducing RMSE by 29% and MSE by 48%, and built a LangChain/OpenAI natural language interface deployed on AWS. My academic work was accepted for presentation at EIA Nordic 2025 and won the Best Paper Award at AEIT 2025.

I seek to bring pragmatic, explainable AI solutions to production while continuing to innovate in generative AI, RAG, and XAI. I value clear communication, reproducible pipelines, and opportunities to translate research into impactful, deployable products.
