Machine Learning Software Engineer II at RBC Borealis, building ML developer infrastructure that supports ~10,000 jobs per week.

At RBC Borealis, I own the end-to-end ML developer experience on Run:ai, supporting about 10,000 jobs each week across experimentation, distributed training, and production model hosting. I’ve also developed runtime security compliance scanners and built CI/CD pipelines and data-movement SDKs.

At Precision AI, I owned the design and deployment of an agentic RAG system with SQL-backed grounding for agronomy decision support. I also led development of a computer vision stand-count pipeline, reducing MAE from 15 to 2.4.

Earlier, I deployed production ML models and optimized computer vision inference, including work that improved detection-model latency by 33%. My research includes real-time crop and weed segmentation, and I’ve co-authored peer-reviewed publications on plant model generalization, image segmentation, and multimodal anomaly detection.
