What I work on

I design and deploy AI systems for environments where latency, privacy, hardware constraints, or cloud dependence matter.

  • Edge AI: efficient inference on CPUs, mobile devices, and constrained hardware
  • On-prem AI: private model serving, retrieval, and data pipelines
  • Production ML: model optimization, deployment, evaluation, and observability
  • Agent systems: developer tooling and evidence-driven evaluation

Pinned projects

  • DEIMKit: a practical Python toolkit for training, inference, ONNX export, and deployment with the DEIM object detector
  • tracegrad: evidence-gated system-prompt optimization using traces and LLM-judge results
  • firstmate: an agent distro that orchestrates coding-agent crews through isolated worktrees and supervised delivery
  • Supercharge Your PyTorch Image Models: benchmark-driven inference optimization with ONNX Runtime and TensorRT
  • YOLOv5 with DeepSparse: run object detection at more than 180 FPS on a four-core CPU
  • PyTorch at the Edge: deploy more than 900 TIMM models on Android with TorchScript and Flutter
