What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead and build production AI systems where computer vision, generative AI, RAG, scalable data platforms, and MLOps create measurable operational impact.

I've built production AI systems at Walmart, Everon, ADT, and Percepta, spanning computer vision, video analytics, predictive modeling, generative AI, and enterprise automation.

At Walmart, I lead machine learning engineering for supply-chain and warehouse automation, delivering distributed data pipelines, real-time computer-vision inference, model serving, observability, and cloud-native deployment. Previously at Everon and ADT, I led AI/ML teams and built RAG, vector search, LLM evaluation, predictive analytics, and MLOps platforms that reduced model deployment cycles from three months to two weeks and reduced unsupported AI-generated responses by 40%.

My work turns research into reliable products using Python, PyTorch, TensorFlow, Spark, Kubernetes, AWS, GCP, and Azure. I also mentor engineers in computer vision, ML system design, dataset management, MLOps, and production deployment.
