@shykhhafeez

Senior AI/ML engineer specializing in production-grade generative AI and scalable ML systems.

What I'm looking for

I seek roles building production-grade generative AI and scalable ML platforms with strong MLOps, observability, and compliance focus.

I am a Senior AI/ML engineer with six years building production-grade AI SaaS platforms, fintech intelligence systems, and healthcare AI solutions. I turn cutting-edge research into enterprise-ready systems by architecting scalable ML pipelines, leading distributed training, and operationalizing models with robust MLOps and governance.

My work includes designing RAG and LLM-powered copilots, deploying secure multi-tenant cloud-native infrastructures, and optimizing inference for low-latency real-time systems. I prioritize observability, reproducibility, and compliance—aligning architectures with SOC2, ISO, FINRA, and PCI-DSS while enabling continuous model improvement.
