- Comfortable across the data path, from ingestion pipelines to the API that serves predictions
- Healthtech experience means real respect for data privacy and validation
This profile represents the applied ML shape teams actually need: an engineer who treats a model as one component of a working product, not the whole point.
Background
Six years in Python, split between data engineering and machine learning. Has built ingestion pipelines, trained and fine-tuned PyTorch models, and wrapped them in FastAPI services running on AWS. Most of that time was spent in healthtech and SaaS, where messy real-world data and strict handling requirements are the norm rather than the exception.
Strengths
- Production ML. Knows the distance between a promising notebook and a served, monitored model, and how to cross it.
- Data pipelines. Builds ingestion and transformation that keep working when the upstream source changes.
- Evaluation discipline. Measures models against the business metric, not just a validation score.
- Service craft. FastAPI services with proper typing, tests, and sensible latency budgets.
Typical engagement
Full time or substantial part time, often as the first ML hire alongside an existing product team. IST hours with reliable overlap into European mornings and US evenings by arrangement. Available now.

Frequently asked questions
Is this a real, specific person I can hire?
This is a representative profile of the kind of developer in the vetted pool, not a public listing of one named individual. When you request it, we confirm who is actually available with a matching background and share real details under NDA.
Can I interview them before committing?
Yes. Every match includes an interview, and you can run a paid trial before making it permanent.
