AI/ML Engineer.

— statistical rigor meets modern AI engineering

I am an AI/ML Engineer specializing in high-performance retrieval pipelines and machine learning systems. Backed by a Master’s degree in Applied Econometrics and a Diploma in Artificial Intelligence from La Cité, I focus on transitioning complex quantitative models and data architectures into production-ready deployments.

My background bridges rigorous statistical inference and modern AI engineering, allowing me to build solutions that are not just technically advanced, but mathematically sound and aligned with real-world business logic.

Currently open to: AI/ML Engineer · MLOps · Applied Scientist roles
01 / What I Bring

Four pillars of practice.

P.01 — Communication

Statistical Communication

Eight years as an Economics & Statistics educator. I translate complex econometric theories, causal inferences, and predictive models into clear, actionable insights for both technical and non-technical audiences.

8 years teaching experience
P.02 — Modeling

Predictive Analytics

End-to-end geospatial valuation models using supervised ensemble methods (XGBoost, CatBoost). Rigorous hypothesis testing and feature engineering across 80+ structural and geospatial variables.

R² = 0.9230 · 80+ features
P.03 — LLM Evaluation

Quantitative AI Evaluation

Mathematical benchmarking pipelines for Large Language Model outputs using the RAGAS framework. Cross-encoder abstention mechanisms designed to mathematically prevent hallucinations in enterprise architectures.

Context Precision = 0.83
P.04 — Optimization

High-Dimensional Optimization

Fine-tuning of deep learning models (Matryoshka embeddings) on the Amazon ESCI dataset. Compressed embedding dimensions while maintaining strict recall and nDCG performance metrics.

91% dimension reduction
