Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolModestas Filipavicius is an independent consultant and senior ML engineer with nine years of experience building robust evaluation frameworks, MLOps pipelines, and reliable generative AI systems from research to production. He has engineered automatic LLM judges that adapt to changing product specs and labels, and co-developed prompt-optimization tooling that closes the loop between evaluation and agent behavior. His background spans conversational AI at scale—designing dialogue managers, observability, and call-serving infrastructure—as well as bioinformatics and protein language modeling from earlier research roles. Based in Zurich, he blends deep domain expertise in ML and systems engineering with hands-on implementation in Python, Databricks, LangGraph, and Semantic Kernel. An attention to reproducibility and automated metric-driven workflows sets him apart: he focuses on making AI evaluation living, versioned artifacts rather than static reports.
