AI/ML Engineering
I build the runtime and platform layers that move AI from a model into a dependable system: inference, orchestration, observability, and operational workflows.
Lead AI Engineer · Curacel
2021–2023
Led a five-person team delivering the company's first production AI system for motor-insurance claims. Built computer-vision services for damage localisation and image classification, an OCR-driven claims-processing pipeline, and cloud MLOps workflows across AWS and GCP. Also integrated vector retrieval into medical-claims workflows.
