About me

Innovative and results-driven AI & Fullstack Engineer with 7+ years of hands-on experience designing, building, and scaling production AI systems across some of the most dynamic sectors in tech. Adept at leading full product lifecycles from zero-to-one founding engineering through to large-scale infrastructure serving billions of daily interactions.

Brings deep technical expertise in deep learning (CNNs, GANs, transformer-based LLMs, MoE architectures), computer vision (semantic segmentation, image-to-image translation, HDR fusion), and natural language processing (conversational AI, intent parsing, multilingual NLP). Equally fluent across the fullstack, with extensive experience in Python, Next.js, MERN, REST API design, real-time data pipelines (Apache Kafka, Flink), and cloud infrastructure (AWS, Alibaba Cloud).

Proven ability to translate cutting-edge AI research into user-facing products at scale, including integrating successive generations of large language models into live platforms, buildin
