I build AI systems that turn data into decisions fast. Whether you’re trying to match the right candidate to the right job, detect products in real time, or launch a custom GPT-style assistant, I’ll help you go from concept to deployment with clean, reliable, production-ready AI.
As a seasoned AI/ML engineer and consultant, I specialize in delivering full-stack machine learning solutions across NLP, LLMs, computer vision, time series forecasting, and anomaly detection - all optimized for real-world speed, scale, and security.
I work with startups, founders, and enterprise teams to integrate AI deeply into their workflows, transforming raw data into value, and automation into advantage.
🔹 Core Capabilities
• Vertex AI & MLOps Excellence
Scalable training, tuning, deployment, and monitoring pipelines using Vertex AI, AutoML, and GCP-native tooling.
Seamless integration with BigQuery, Cloud Functions, and artifact management via MLflow or Vertex AI Experiments.
• Natural Language Processing (NLP)
Building and fine-tuning powerful NLP systems: resume classifiers, document summarizers, sentiment engines, NER extractors, and custom GPT-like assistants using Transformers, Hugging Face, LangChain, and LLM fine-tuning frameworks (LoRA, QLoRA).
• Computer Vision
Developing high-performance visual systems for image classification, object detection (YOLOv5/v8), segmentation, and OCR using TensorFlow, PyTorch, and pre-trained vision transformers (e.g., SAM, CLIP).
• Time Series Forecasting & Anomaly Detection
Designing intelligent systems to predict, flag, and act on time-dependent patterns in finance, retail, supply chain, and operations using Prophet, ARIMA, LSTM, CNN-LSTM hybrids, and change-point detection algorithms.

Most teams don't need more AI ideas. They need AI that actually works in production, integrated into their existing tools, automated end-to-end, and built to survive real data and real users.
I'm Ali Dabouei (PhD), a full-stack AI engineer based in Vienna, VA. I own the entire delivery: model design, pipeline architecture, backend/frontend development, API integrations, automation workflows, and cloud or on-prem deployment. One person, full accountability, prototype to production.
What I build: Agentic AI · RAG pipelines · Voice AI agents · Computer vision · OCR & Document AI · Generative AI · AI automation & API integrations
Recent work:
• Logistics OCR platform: 10,000+ invoices/week at 98%+ accuracy, with automated auditing and billing discrepancy detection
• Agentic legal framework: native legal CRM integration automating 60%+ of routine legal tasks, no Zapier or n8n
• Voice AI agents: deployed across healthcare scheduling, B2B sales qualification, real estate lead follow-up, and 24/7 restaurant order handling, all with full CRM, calendar, and operations dashboard integration.
• RAG assistants: on-prem document analysis, e-commerce support across chat/email/social, and adaptive tutoring
• Sports video analytics: YOLO + SAM pipeline extracting player tracking and tactical metrics from raw game footage
Tech stack: Python · FastAPI · LangGraph/LangChain · React · Next.js · PostgreSQL · AWS · Twilio · ElevenLabs · Deepgram · Pinecone · Weaviate · PaddleOCR · PyTorch · OpenCV · YOLO · Amazon Bedrock · Google Gemini · REST APIs
My background is research-heavy (PhD WVU, postdoc CMU, 30+ publications) but my style is practical: fast prototype → tight feedback loop → rigorous stress-testing before launch. I build automations natively, integrate directly with your APIs and CRMs, and have on-prem deployment experience for security-sensitive environments (legal, healthcare, finance).
Typically, I start with a short discovery call or scoped paid milestone to validate the approach before committing to a full build.

I build the data infrastructure and AI systems that modern businesses actually need — not just pipelines that move data, but intelligent platforms where AI agents can reason, act, and deliver results.
With a background in mathematics and 5+ years across data engineering, AI, and cloud architecture, I sit at the convergence point that defines 2026: where data pipelines meet agentic AI. I don't just build ETL — I build the context layer that makes AI useful.
𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗜 𝗗𝗼 𝗡𝗼𝘄
I currently work as an AI & Data Engineer building MCP (Model Context Protocol) server infrastructure and authoring structured conversation datasets used to train production LLMs. This is hands-on agentic AI work — designing tool-calling schemas, orchestrating multi-step reasoning flows, and engineering the context that turns a base model into a reliable autonomous agent.
𝗔𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗔𝗜 & 𝗟𝗟𝗠 𝗦𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺𝘀
I design and build tool-using AI agents with real-world integrations — not chatbot wrappers, but systems that connect to databases, APIs, and business logic through MCP and structured tool definitions. My work spans conversation dataset authoring for SFT, RAG pipeline design, prompt and context engineering, and multi-agent orchestration.
𝗗𝗮𝘁𝗮 𝗘𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 & 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺 𝗔𝗿𝗰𝗵𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲
I architect end-to-end data platforms that serve both analytics and AI workloads. This includes batch and real-time streaming pipelines (Kafka, Airflow, PubSub), cloud-native data warehouses (Snowflake, BigQuery), and the transformation layers that turn raw data into AI-ready assets — embeddings, feature stores, and structured context for LLM consumption.
𝗖𝗹𝗼𝘂𝗱 & 𝗜𝗻𝗳𝗿𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲
I design scalable, cost-conscious architectures across AWS, Azure, and GCP. Whether it's provisioning compute for model training, building event-driven data flows, or managing multi-cloud deployments with Terraform, I focus on infrastructure that accelerates your AI initiatives rather than bottlenecking them.
𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗖𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗪𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗠𝗲
I bridge the gap between "we have data" and "we have AI that works." Most teams today need someone who understands both the data plumbing and the AI layer on top — that's exactly where I operate. I bring engineering discipline to AI projects and AI fluency to data engineering work.
