I build and optimize high-performance AI systems, from large-scale data pipelines to generative models. I'm passionate about turning complex data into actionable insights and reliable, production-ready software.
- High-Throughput Data Systems: Engineering distributed query and data pipelines on multi-billion-row warehouses (Trino, SQL).
- Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG): Implementing and optimizing RAG pipelines to enhance LLM performance and reduce operational costs (LlamaIndex, Pinecone).
- Generative AI Models: Building and deploying Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) for high-fidelity synthetic data generation (TensorFlow).
- Real-Time Predictive Analytics: Developing and validating models (RandomForest, Scikit-learn) for time-critical decision-making in high-stakes environments.
- End-to-End MLOps: Containerizing services (Docker) and building full CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions) for automated testing and deployment.
