What I'm looking for

I’m seeking full-time roles applying computer vision and LLMs where I can build and deploy production ML systems, collaborate with interdisciplinary teams, and continue research-driven impact.

I am a graduate in AI and Data Science with strong expertise in computer vision, LLMs, and practical MLOps, backed by hands-on projects like an awarded Master’s thesis on aerial photography localization and a commissioned museum recommendation system. I combine deep technical skills in PyTorch, Hugging Face, and full‑stack deployment with research rigor and collaborative experience from academic and industry-aligned projects.

I have taught university courses and served as a teaching assistant, sharpening my communication, leadership, and mentoring capabilities while delivering production-ready ML systems. I seek roles where I can apply advanced machine learning, drive model deployment at scale, and contribute to impactful, real-world AI solutions.
