Data scientist and AI leader building production LLMs, NILM, and energy analytics platforms.
What I'm looking for
I am a data scientist and AI leader with deep experience architecting production ML/LLM systems, energy analytics, and NILM solutions that scale across millions of smart‑meter datapoints. I have led end-to-end platform builds (RAG/agentic pipelines, vector stores, model fine-tuning, deployment with Docker/Kubernetes) and delivered measurable operational impact such as consolidated copilot interfaces, sub-25s p95 latencies, and large improvements in officer engagement and billing efficiency.
I have founded and scaled a revenue-generating startup, led cross-functional teams and mentored junior engineers, and published academic work and patents related to vision and mixed-reality systems. I seek roles where I can drive production ML products, mentor teams, and translate advanced research into business impact.
