🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolMaria Khelli is a software engineer with five years of experience building scalable back-end systems and ML-enabled features across fast-moving consumer and maritime domains. Currently she keeps TikTok LIVE wallets running, focusing on transaction, settlement, and payout reliability at scale. She has led small cross-functional teams, refactored large codebases, and improved endpoint performance by up to 20x while introducing NoSQL and caching strategies for real-world data. Her background spans machine learning engineering, search and image pipelines, and chatbot/LLM integrations using LangChain and prompt engineering techniques explored during Google Summer of Code. Based in Singapore, she blends hands-on implementation (Django, TypeScript, Redis, MongoDB, AWS) with mentoring and open-source collaboration, and she often experiments with prompting on multimodal data. An unexpected strength: she pairs production-grade engineering with practical DevOps and deployment experience, enabling features to move quickly from prototype to reliable service.
