Summary
Clinton Mielke is a Senior AI Engineer in San Francisco with a decade of experience building production-grade ML and AI systems at the intersection of medical imaging, computational biology, and security. He designs and deploys foundation models and SSL pipelines for digital pathology at petabyte scale, integrating HPC, orchestration (SageMaker, Dagster), and vector/RAG tooling (Milvus, LangChain, Ollama) to accelerate cancer genomics research. His background spans translational work—from shipping the first AI-embedded medical device to leading molecular modeling and AlphaFold-driven pipelines for drug discovery—and includes independent security research that uncovered a critical IoT zero-day used to mitigate Mirai infections. Comfortable both in deep research and operationalizing ML, he routinely moves from novel algorithms and publications to reproducible company-wide stacks and automated workflows. Founder of Aleph-1 and Project Infinome with a hacker ethos, he blends curiosity-driven exploration with disciplined engineering and federal-level coordination experience.
