I design, optimize, and integrate real-time object detection and tracking pipelines for NVIDIA Jetson, RK3588, and cloud environments — with measurable gains in FPS, latency, and deployment stability. From YOLO training to TensorRT optimization and production integration, I build Computer Vision systems that work reliably on real hardware. If you need more than just a trained model — if you need a working AI system integrated into hardware or software — I deliver complete, production-ready solutions. 🎯 WHAT I DELIVER • End-to-End Deep Learning Pipelines Model architecture → dataset optimization → training → evaluation → deployment • Real-Time Object Detection & Multi-Object Tracking Optimized YOLO pipelines with stable tracking (DeepSORT / ByteTrack / BOT-SORT) • ⚡ Edge AI Acceleration & Performance Optimization TensorRT conversion, CUDA acceleration, latency reduction, memory tuning, FPS improvements • 🔗 AI Integration into Production Systems Jetson deployment, inference APIs, embedded integration, debugging, monitoring & system optimization 🏆 PROVEN EXPERIENCE • 5★ Upwork reviews for NVIDIA Jetson Nano, AGX & Orin deployments • Deployed Frigate and real-time CV pipelines on Jetson Orin NX • Optimized inference performance using TensorRT for improved real-time execution • Installed and configured LLM environments with secure key management & usage tracking • Research & production AI deployment experience at HBrain 🛠 TECH STACK Deep Learning: PyTorch, CNN architectures, YOLO variants Computer Vision: OpenCV, real-time video processing, detection & tracking Optimization: TensorRT, CUDA Systems: Linux, Embedded Systems, NVIDIA Jetson Languages: Python, C++ If you share your hardware target, dataset sample, or performance goal, I can propose a clear technical architecture and realistic delivery plan.

7+ years as a Computer Vision Engineer and AI Product Engineer building production OCR, image analysis, segmentation, ONNX/FastAPI inference, VLM/RAG, and OpenAI/Claude/OpenClaw workflows. I help teams move from AI demos to reliable products: model pipelines, backend APIs, review dashboards, human approval gates, monitoring, cloud deployment, and clean handoff. My strongest projects combine: • Computer vision: segmentation, detection, landmarking, image analysis, visual inspection • OCR/document AI: extraction, validation, structured outputs, reviewer workflows • AI product systems: OpenAI/Claude, OpenClaw, VLMs, RAG, source traces, confidence checks • Production engineering: Python, FastAPI, ONNX, OpenCV, PyTorch/TensorFlow, PostgreSQL, Cloud Run/AWS I am a good fit when the output must be accurate, reviewable, logged, and safe enough for real business use.

Most computer vision projects fail not in training — but in deployment. Models that hit 95% accuracy in the lab break down when lighting shifts, hardware stutters, or the camera feed isn't clean. I build systems engineered to survive those conditions — and I've done it across industries, hardware platforms, and deployment environments. I'm a Computer Vision Engineer specializing in end-to-end AI pipelines — from raw camera input to real-time inference, deployed on edge hardware, cloud APIs, or both. ━━ Core services ━━ → Object detection & multi-object tracking — YOLOv8, YOLOv5, ByteTrack, BOTSort, MMDetection → Segmentation, pose estimation & keypoints — MediaPipe, custom model architectures → Edge AI deployment — NVIDIA Jetson Orin/Nano, Raspberry Pi, Hailo — TensorRT, ONNX, INT8/FP16 → Cloud & API deployment — FastAPI, Docker, AWS GPU instances, REST & WebSocket inference APIs → Video analytics & smart camera systems — safety monitoring, defect detection, zone tracking, people counting ━━ Systems I've shipped ━━ ✓ Real-time fall detection on NVIDIA Jetson — production-deployed, sub-100ms latency ✓ Zone-based people tracking & monitoring for safety-critical environments ✓ Industrial defect detection pipeline — TensorRT-optimized, running on constrained edge hardware ✓ End-to-end smart camera system: camera → inference → dashboard & real-time alerts ✓ OpenCV video analytics pipelines with custom pre/post-processing and business logic ━━ What makes my work different ━━ Most CV engineers deliver a model file. I deliver a working system — optimized, integrated, and running reliably in your environment. I lead a small team and personally own system architecture, optimization strategy, and core AI engineering on every project. You get senior-level technical execution, not delegation to juniors. Edge or cloud. Jetson or GPU server. Prototype or production scale. I've built across all of it. ━━ How a typical project runs ━━ 1. Discovery — review your hardware targets, data sources, and latency requirements before any code is written 2. Architecture — design the full pipeline: model selection, optimization path, deployment stack, integration points 3. Build & optimize — iterative development with benchmarked FPS and accuracy metrics at each stage 4. Deployment — containerized, documented, and running on your target environment 5. Handover — clean codebase, inline documentation, and a session so your team can maintain it independently ━━ Full tech stack ━━ Models: YOLOv8, YOLOv5, YOLOv7, MMDetection, Detectron2, PyTorch, TensorFlow, ONNX Runtime Tracking: ByteTrack, BOTSort, DeepSORT, StrongSORT, custom zone logic & counting algorithms Optimization: TensorRT INT8/FP16, ONNX quantization, model pruning, batch inference tuning Edge hardware: NVIDIA Jetson Orin/Nano, Raspberry Pi 4/5, Hailo-8, Coral TPU Cloud & infra: FastAPI, Flask, Docker, AWS EC2/Lambda, GCP, RTSP/RTMP stream processing Vision utilities: OpenCV, FFmpeg, GStreamer, PIL/Pillow, custom pipeline components ━━ Project types I take on ━━ → Greenfield CV systems — full pipeline from scratch to production deployment → Model optimization — take an existing model and make it production-fast on your hardware → Edge porting — migrate a cloud-based CV system to Jetson, Raspberry Pi, or Hailo → Pipeline debugging — diagnose and fix latency, accuracy, or stability issues in live systems → Inference API — wrap your CV model as a scalable, low-latency REST or WebSocket API → PoC → production — take a working demo and harden it for real-world deployment at scale → Team augmentation — embedded senior CV engineer for sprints or longer-term engagements ━━ Industries served ━━ Manufacturing & quality control — defect detection, visual inspection, production line monitoring Safety & security — real-time threat detection, perimeter monitoring, crowd analytics Retail & logistics — shelf analytics, people counting, queue management, warehouse tracking Healthcare — patient monitoring support systems, lab automation, medical imaging pipelines Agriculture — crop health detection, drone-based aerial inspection, field monitoring systems ━━ Common questions ━━ Work with our existing dataset? Yes — I assess quality, recommend augmentation strategies, and fine-tune models on your labeled data. Edge or cloud deployment? Both — Jetson, Raspberry Pi, and Hailo at the edge; AWS GPU instances and containerized APIs in the cloud. Can you take our prototype to production? That's one of my most common engagements — hardening, optimizing, and deploying existing concepts for real-world reliability. Documentation and handover included? Always. Clean code, inline comments, deployment instructions, and a dedicated handover session on every project. If you need computer vision that performs beyond lab conditions — on real hardware, with real data, in real-world environments — let's talk.
