At Defined.ai he worked on corpus balancing, trigram-targeted datasets, and Nvidia NeMo modules, and previously built real-time subscription middleware, video captioning/subtitling services, and annotation tools. Comfortable across the ML stack and backend systems, he blends research-rooted rigor with pragmatic engineering to move models and pipelines into reliable production. An appetite for change keeps him adopting new tooling while retaining deep Python expertise.
