What I'm looking for

I seek roles building production ML/LLM systems with strong engineering ownership, scalable cloud-native deployments, observability, and cross-functional collaboration in regulated or high-scale environments.

I am a Senior AI Software Engineer with 9+ years building production-grade software systems and applied AI solutions across enterprise and consumer environments. I specialize in backend engineering, AI/ML system integration, and cloud-native architectures, driving LLM applications and ML pipelines from prototype to reliable production.

At Mattress Firm and prior roles at Citi and IBM/Kyndryl, I designed and productionized LLM-powered recommendation, semantic search, and fraud detection systems, improving operational metrics—such as reducing onboarding time by 30%, cutting support queries by 25%, and improving model accuracy and latency significantly.

I thrive in regulated and high-scale contexts, bringing hands-on experience with model deployment, observability, inference optimization, and cross-functional collaboration to deliver maintainable, auditable AI services that meet performance, reliability, and compliance goals.
