What I'm looking for

I seek a senior/lead role building production-grade GenAI platforms with strong MLOps, multi-cloud deployment, cross-functional collaboration, and responsible AI governance.

I am a Lead Generative AI Architect with 10+ years of progressive experience driving digital transformation from foundational data science to strategic generative AI leadership. I design, build, and deploy enterprise-scale LLM and GenAI solutions—including RAG, fine-tuning, and agentic frameworks—across multi-cloud environments.

At Striveworks I architected and led multi-cloud LLM Ops for five+ GenAI solutions, integrated Gemini 2.0 via Discovery Engine, and implemented RAG systems using Pinecone and Weaviate to cut hallucination rates by over 50%. I drove technical vision for foundational AI systems and established enterprise LLM adoption and governance frameworks.

Previously, I reduced deployment cycles by 55% through automation of ML and data pipelines, optimized transformer NLP models for a 30% improvement in personalization, and engineered a real-time fraud detection engine deployed as FastAPI microservices. I champion Responsible AI practices, security, and compliance (HIPAA, GDPR, SOC2).

I mentor engineers on advanced techniques (distillation, quantization, A2A protocols), and I focus on scalable, production-grade MLOps/LLMOps—combining LangChain/LangGraph/LlamaIndex tooling, CI/CD, observability, and cloud-native deployment to deliver measurable business outcomes.
