What I'm looking for

I seek hands‑on roles building AI/ML and web products, collaborative Agile teams, mentorship, and opportunities to grow across backend, RAG pipelines, and deployment.

I am a tech‑enthusiastic Computer Science and IT student focused on web development and AI/ML, with hands‑on experience building production‑oriented AI features such as calendar agents, RAG pipelines, and API wrappers. I’ve implemented Retrieval‑Augmented Generation systems using LangChain/LangGraph, integrated vector databases like pgvector, and developed FastAPI and Go services to deliver context‑aware functionality.

I bring practical industry exposure from internships and apprenticeships where I adopted Agile workflows, applied clean‑code practices, and contributed UI designs and component libraries in Figma. I’m driven to learn, collaborate on innovative projects, and expand my skills across backend, frontend, and ML tooling to deliver impactful products.
