What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead design and delivery of production-scale generative AI solutions, collaborate with product and client teams, and drive measurable adoption and cost-efficient deployments.

I am a senior software engineer and solutions architect specializing in generative AI, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), agents, and production LLM fine-tuning. I build end-to-end stacks that move models from research to scalable, cost-effective production deployments.

I've led technical design and product implementation for therapeutic and enterprise AI products, contributed major features to an open-source RAG framework, and delivered measurable improvements such as a 95% contention rate for a revamped IVR and reduced cloud costs through containerized serverless deployments.

I collaborate closely with cross-functional teams and clients to maximize product adoption and outcomes, while publishing technical work and shipping platforms like an enterprise document-intelligence solution and an AI-powered sales enablement product.
