Elijas Dapšauskas is a Senior AI Engineer with 11 years of experience building production-grade AI systems, currently focused on agentic LLM workflows and pipelines at The Motley Fool. He combines deep ML engineering—time series forecasting, CV model optimization, and real-time SEC-filing analysis—with hands-on backend and DevOps expertise demonstrated by owning CompreFace’s Python backend and production stack. At Uber he delivered a forecasting model that boosted capacity planning accuracy by 34%, yielding seven-figure annual savings, and he’s skilled at turning ML research into microservices and scalable MLOps. As a founder-level engineer he architected cost-performance-optimized LLM infrastructure with observability and published open-source tooling like an LLM agent framework and SEC analysis libraries. Based in Lithuania, he blends product-minded shipping with low-level server fluency (Flask, uWSGI, Nginx, Docker) and a penchant for practical automation—evident in utility projects such as an improved AutoHotkey desktop switcher.
