What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead end-to-end AI engineering—building production MLOps on GCP/AWS, applying RL and vision-language models to impactful domains, and collaborating with teams that value rigorous testing, scalability, and measurable outcomes.

I’m an Expert AI Engineer and Data Scientist with 6+ years of experience designing and deploying complex intelligent systems end-to-end. My work spans fundamental AI research to scalable Cloud architecture and MLOps deployment, with a focus on mission-critical outcomes.

As Principal Engineer in Algorithmic Trading Solutions at GlobalEdge LLC, I integrated AI (RL exploration and synthetic data generation) into rule-based trading strategies to optimize fund performance and diversification. I developed classification, regression, and reinforcement learning models for massive financial datasets using high-throughput APIs, then operationalized them in production-ready systems.

I build AI systems that are both performant and usable: I managed GCP architecture (App Engine, Cloud Storage) and led automated, scalable processing and deployment. I also developed real-time visualization frameworks using Plotly and D3.js to support strategic decision-making, combining LLM and vision-language capabilities with strong engineering practices.

In freelance work with Tritonis Inc, I served as Lead AI Architect—benchmarking and implementing 7 SOTA models (Qwen2-VL, MedSAM, Llama-3.2) for medical image classification and delivering a contextual conversational assistant for pedagogical interpretation of AI diagnostics. I’m methodical about validation (accuracy via F1-score and bias mitigation using Fitzpatrick skin phototypes) and disciplined about production engineering with FastAPI, Docker, JWT authentication, and TLS 1.3.
