What I'm looking for

I seek roles building production AI/ML systems where I can lead end-to-end model development, MLOps, and data-driven product delivery in collaborative, impact-focused teams.

I am an AI and data science professional with over six years of experience building production AI applications, MLOps pipelines, and data-driven analytics. I combine strong Python development skills with practical deployment experience across cloud platforms and real-time systems.

At Bekaert I led projects including sentiment analysis with RAG pipelines, patent landscaping, industrial process optimization, and vehicle trajectory tracking—delivering quantitative insights, cost savings, and interactive dashboards. I have implemented end-to-end solutions using LangChain, Faiss, Pinecone, Azure Synapse, PySpark, FastAPI, and PowerBI.

I bring a hands-on engineering mindset from prior roles as a Python developer and an internship in turbomachinery research, and I hold an M.S. in Solid Mechanics. I prioritize delivering measurable business value, scalable architectures, and clear collaboration across teams.
