About

AI Engineer at IBM where I architect production-grade AI systems—from advanced RAG pipelines to autonomous agentic workflows.

Previously, one year as a Solutions Architect at Huawei gave me deep expertise in cloud architectures, which I've further validated through AWS certifications (ML Specialty, Solutions Architect Associate, AI Practitioner) and Databricks Data Engineer certification.

Currently also a Machine Learning Professor at UAX University, where I create and deliver the Machine Learning I & Machine Learning II curricula for 20+ students. With a Master's in Machine Learning & Healthcare, published research in Applied Optics (first-author), and experience leading workshops at major conferences like PyConES, I combine deep technical expertise in AI & ML and cloud infrastructure with a passion for knowledge sharing.

Professional Experience

AI Engineer

IBM

Nov 2024 - Present
  • Architected comprehensive RAG pipelines from ground up, implementing using Python sophisticated data chunking algorithms, optimized Elasticsearch vector indexing, multi-stage retrieval mechanisms, advanced re-ranking with cross-encoder models, context-aware LLM prompting strategies, and intelligent query rewriting for enhanced semantic understanding. Deployed production-grade FastAPI microservices containerized with Docker, orchestrated via GitLab CI/CD pipelines for DevOps integration
  • Developing AI agent systems capable of autonomous code generation in Angular, implementing even self corrective steps and unit tests. Utilizing LangGraph while working with diverse agent architectures and tools. Successfully deployed applications on serverless cloud containers with integrated GitHub repository connections. I also exposed the agentic applications with remote MCP servers (hosted on AWS) using fast-mcp
  • Initiating advanced web scraping projects (using python, selenium and S3 buckets) to develop robust data ingestion pipelines for enhanced RAG application performance and knowledge base expansion
  • Delivered comprehensive workshops to customers covering GenAI concepts including prompt engineering techniques and RAG application development, building technical credibility and client relationships
  • Participating in executive communication initiatives with senior company leadership to develop my public speaking expertise

Workshops

Multimodal RAG Pipeline Workshop at PyConES

2024

In a practical workshop at PyConES (biggest python conference in Spain), I instructed over 50 participants on how to build a multimodal RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) pipeline from the ground up. The complete solution adhered to industry best practices, using Python and IBM's robust open-source library, Docling, for intricate document processing.
