What I'm looking for

I’m looking for global, remote opportunities to build production-grade LLM and GenAI systems—RAG, fine-tuning, and evaluation—then ship scalable, measurable AI products end-to-end, collaborating closely to deliver reliable impact.

I’m a Senior AI Engineer with 11+ years of experience specializing in LLMs, Generative AI, and production-grade ML systems. I build AI-powered SaaS platforms, RAG pipelines, and large-scale data systems across healthcare, fintech, e-commerce, education, and smart cities.

In my most recent role, I led the full lifecycle development of enterprise-grade LLM applications—from design and data pipelines to SFT/RLHF fine-tuning and deployment. I built scalable RAG pipelines and evaluation frameworks, improving model accuracy by over 35% across multiple enterprise use cases.

I also architected AI-driven smart city systems, including predictive analytics, infrastructure optimization, and real-time ETL/ML pipelines for decision-making. Earlier, I delivered end-to-end AI automation that reduced workflow bottlenecks by 50%, while integrating NLP for intelligent document processing, semantic search, and summarization.

Beyond engineering, I served as Chief Technology Officer / Solution Architect, where I led AI-first e-learning and e-commerce platform development. I scaled to 10,000+ daily active users, improving load speed by 50% and engagement by 40%, and I’ve continued to build solutions that are reliable, scalable, and grounded in evaluation and monitoring.
