Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolCharbel kaed is a Senior Software Engineer in New York with over a decade of experience building backend systems that power IoT, knowledge-graph and ML infrastructure at scale. At Google he’s contributed to the Digital Buildings ontology and tooling and now works on supervised fine-tuning tooling for large language models (LoRA), combining semantics-first thinking with modern ML workflows. His background spans industrial IoT at Schneider Electric—where he led ontology-centric pilots, authored multiple patent applications, and shipped production semantic engines—with early research work on protocol interoperability and automated mediator generation. Versatile across Java, RDF/SPARQL, Apache Spark and cloud platforms, he excels at turning complex semantic models into practical, deployable systems. An understated strength is his habit of bridging research and product: prototyping deeply technical proofs-of-concept and shepherding them into shipped offerings.
