What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build production backend, AI, retrieval, and cloud systems where I can balance accuracy, latency, cost, and delivery speed while owning architecture and explaining trade-offs clearly.

At Avaxia Group, I built an intelligent document-understanding pipeline across 1.8M+ web and PDF pages and 300+ technical books. I sole-authored and shipped a grounded RAG assistant, from ingestion and pgvector retrieval through FastAPI, LLM inference, and a React chat interface.

I've led backend delivery for AI learning workflows at Campusna, integrated OpenAI into a production platform, and built subscription systems connecting Moodle, mobile-money payments, and USSD/SMS access. At Lokafy, I improved asynchronous processing, automated review ingestion, migrated Cloud Run services with zero downtime, and led a Vue/Nuxt modernization.

I balance latency, accuracy, infrastructure cost, and delivery speed while making technical trade-offs clear to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
