AI engineering student contributing to Graphify Labs’ Python codebase, with regression tests for a Git-marker bug fix.
What I'm looking for
At Graphify Labs (YC S26), I contributed a bug fix to the Python codebase to prevent ignore-pattern leakage from invalid Git markers. I added regression tests and reported 303 detector tests passed, with 11 skipped; my PR is under review.
At Synthica, I’m working on AI, ML, and data-driven research, with a focus on Python development and APIs. I’m also building and evaluating ML models as a Machine Learning Intern at FlyRank AI.
For my AIS Maritime Anomaly Detection project, I built an end-to-end system using Isolation Forest to identify anomalous vessel movements in AIS records. I served predictions with FastAPI and created a React and TypeScript dashboard with maps and live alerts.
