What I'm looking for

I seek senior roles building production GenAI/ML systems on cloud-native platforms where I can drive end-to-end solutions, mentor teams, and deliver measurable business impact.

I am a senior AI/ML engineer and data scientist with 8+ years building production Python applications, cloud-native data platforms, and GenAI solutions across finance, healthcare, and legal domains. I design and deploy end-to-end ML pipelines, implement LLM and RAG workflows, and optimize ETL and streaming architectures to deliver real-time analytics, risk models, and autonomous agentic systems.

I have led enterprise projects on AWS (Redshift, Glue, Lambda, Kinesis), orchestrated workflows with Airflow and Kafka, and productionized models using CI/CD and monitoring best practices. I prioritize secure, scalable solutions, mentor teams, and drive measurable outcomes such as fraud detection, credit scoring, and personalized recommendations using robust feature engineering and model evaluation.
