What I'm looking for

I seek roles building enterprise GenAI and RAG systems with strong Azure cloud architecture, team collaboration, clear governance, and opportunities to lead MLOps and scalable AI deployments.

I am a Microsoft Certified AI Engineer with over six years designing and implementing enterprise-scale AI/ML solutions across logistics, government, and insurance sectors.

I build GenAI technologies, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines, and intelligent virtual assistants that automate complex inquiries across voice, chat, and digital channels, emphasizing secure, compliant deployments.

My technical strengths include Azure cloud architecture, microservices, API integration, Snowflake (Snowpark), PySpark, and automated MLOps using Azure DevOps, enabling reliable production integration and scalable model hosting.

I collaborate closely with cross-functional teams, lead cloud migrations and Agile delivery (SAFe), and produce rigorous technical documentation and governance to ensure maintainable, high-impact AI systems.
