What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead end-to-end ML solutions, drive measurable business impact, mentor teams, and build user-centered, scalable AI products in collaborative, innovation-focused environments.

I am a senior data scientist with over a decade of experience in machine learning, advanced analytics, R&D and digital innovation across APAC and Europe. I combine strong mathematical foundations with human-centric design to build practical, scalable solutions.

My work spans the full ML lifecycle: ideation, stakeholder management, ETL, modelling, POC, MVP, deployment, MLOps and monitoring. I have applied computer vision, anomaly detection, recommendation systems, and NLP to drive measurable business impact.

Notable achievements include delivering multi-million dollar revenue uplift and expense reductions through models deployed in production, building reusable geospatial assets, and leading region-wide technical and executive knowledge-sharing sessions. I have experience with Azure Cloud, Dataiku and Databricks and work in Scalable Agile Framework (SAFe).

I value rapid prototyping, process optimization and product development that centers user needs, and I actively promote peer learning and stakeholder buy-in to ensure solutions are adopted and sustained.
