I'm a Software and AI Engineer with 5+ years of experience building full-stack systems, AI-powered applications, and production grade backend infrastructure. I specialize in Ruby on Rails, Python, Node.js, and TypeScript, with deep hands-on experience in LLM integration, NLP pipelines, computer vision, and Kubernetes based deployments. My recent work spans building humanitarian tech platforms, developing AI agents for full stack applications, and running applied ML research on Vision Transformers. I've worked with AWS, GCP, Docker, Langchain, PyTorch, and TensorFlow and I'm comfortable reviewing, validating, and extending AI-generated code responsibly. Beyond shipping code, I care about system reliability, clean architecture, and building things that hold up under real world pressure. I'm drawn to meaningful work social impact platforms, research adjacent engineering, and systems that need to actually scale. I work at the intersection of software and institutional digitalization, driving the modernization of knowledge management systems, standardizing data workflows, and translating legacy processes into scalable digital infrastructure. Strong communicator. 5-star rated. Ready to build something that matters!

I design and lead the development of production-grade AI systems powered by LLMs, RAG architectures, and autonomous agents. With a Master’s degree in Artificial Intelligence & Data Science and a background as a Senior Data Engineer, along with a Bachelor’s degree in Management, I operate at the intersection of engineering, product, and execution—building systems that move beyond prototypes into scalable, real-world solutions. I have led and coordinated teams of 50+ engineers across multiple AI-driven projects, delivering end-to-end systems from architecture to deployment. 💡 Core Expertise • LLM application development (OpenAI, LangChain-based systems) • Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) with vector databases • AI agent architecture and workflow automation • End-to-end ML pipeline design • Scalable data engineering (ETL, Airflow, SQL) • AI-powered web applications (Django, React, API integrations) 🚀 What I Bring Beyond Engineering • Technical leadership & team coordination • Product thinking and system design ownership • Project management across complex AI systems • Translating business needs into scalable AI solutions 🧠 Approach I focus on building systems that are: • Structured and maintainable • Scalable and performance-optimized • Secure and production-ready • Designed for real business impact—not just demos If you're building AI-driven products, intelligent SaaS platforms, or advanced LLM systems, I can help you architect, lead, and deliver them from the ground up. Let’s build intelligent systems that actually work.
