What I'm looking for

I'm seeking mid-level ML/AI roles where I can build production-ready predictive models, improve data pipelines, collaborate cross-functionally, and grow into analytics leadership.

I am a motivated, interest-driven ML/AI engineer with a solid grounding in machine learning basics, statistics, and mathematics.

I build robust data pipelines, perform advanced analytics, and develop predictive models to extract actionable insights from complex financial datasets.

I have applied NLP and deep learning to sentiment analysis projects, deploying models with Flask and FastAPI. I trained LSTM and ARIMA models for stock prediction and automated data collection and preprocessing with Python for trading platforms.

I collaborate across teams, tune models with metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall and F1-score, and deliver data-driven trading solutions. I'm seeking mid-level ML/AI roles where I can scale production-ready models and grow professionally.
