AI-focused engineer building production-ready solutions

0+Years Experience

0+Doctors Served

0+Projects Delivered

0+Developers Led

With 7+ years of experience architecting high-throughput backend systems and shipping production-grade AI/LLM-powered products that serve thousands of users daily.

Architected and scaled AI-driven platforms across healthcare, automation, and SaaS — from designing multi-agent orchestration pipelines (LangGraph, LangChain) and RAG architectures to leading cross-functional engineering teams that consistently deliver ahead of schedule. Drove a 40% reduction in clinical decision-making time for 5,000+ doctors across 4 international hospitals.

Combine deep systems-design expertise (FastAPI, Laravel microservices, MySQL, Redis, Qdrant) with a product-oriented mindset — translating ambiguous business requirements into well-scoped technical roadmaps and mentoring engineers to raise the bar on code quality and delivery velocity.

Actively seeking a senior/staff-level role where I can own the AI platform strategy, scale intelligent systems, and drive measurable business impact.

Leadership

Leading teams of 5+ developers, implementing Agile methodologies, and mentoring junior developers on best practices.

AI & ML Expertise

Specialized in AI/ML, LLMs, Fine-tuning, RAG systems, and building multi-agent systems with LangChain and LangGraph.
