About
Platform Technical Lead (AI/ML)
ISHI Health
I build intelligent systems at the intersection of software engineering and artificial intelligence. With over a decade of experience spanning full-stack development, data engineering, and machine learning, I've led teams across startups and enterprises — from YC-backed companies to Fortune 500 research labs. My work focuses on designing ML platforms, fine-tuning large language models, and deploying production inference pipelines at scale.
Engineering is engineering — whether optimizing fiber bonding or neural network architectures, the discipline of systematic analysis and creative problem-solving transfers across domains.
