Real-time Computer Vision & Edge AI engineer with a deep C/C++ systems and embedded background. I build AI that runs live on real hardware - not just in notebooks. My focus is real-time video analytics on the edge: object detection, tracking, recognition, and TensorRT/CUDA optimization deployed on devices like NVIDIA Jetson. A strong C/C++, embedded, and Linux systems foundation means I care about the whole system - latency, memory movement, post-processing, UI smoothness, deployment, and failure cases - not just model accuracy. I also build LLM-powered applications that connect models to tools, documents, APIs, and business workflows (RAG, tool calling, automation). Recent work - VisionGuard AI: real-time retail shelf recognition on Jetson Orin NX - Live RTSP video analytics on edge hardware - Dense product detection with GPU-side post-processing - Stable object tracking across frames - Embedding-based SKU recognition - Unknown-product rejection instead of forced labels - Runtime recognition updates without restarting the camera stream - Smooth UI overlay under dense shelf conditions I can help with: - Real-time computer vision systems - YOLO / custom detection pipelines - TensorRT, CUDA, Jetson optimization - Multi-camera RTSP video analytics - Edge AI deployment and debugging - LLM apps with RAG, tool calling, and workflow automation - Python/C++ AI backend integration Core stack: C++ - Python - Qt6 - TensorRT - CUDA - YOLO - OpenCV - RTSP - NVIDIA Jetson - Linux

I build code-first AI workflow automation systems using Python, OpenAI and Anthropic APIs, and Google Apps Script and Microsoft VBA. My work focuses on document processing, data extraction, Google Sheets / Docs automation, and structured business workflows that need to be reliable, maintainable, and usable by real teams. Clients usually bring me in when an automation is partly working but too fragile to trust. I tighten business logic, improve extraction quality, add review checkpoints and logging, and turn manual processes into systems a team can actually operate. Typical delivery includes Python scripts, Flask web apps, API integrations, Google Sheets with Apps Script, and deployed workflow systems. I bring enterprise product and delivery experience from Nike and Momentive (SurveyMonkey), which helps when a project needs requirements clarity and stakeholder coordination alongside hands-on implementation.
