Computer systems engineer with 8+ years of production Go and hands-on AI/ML engineering: LLM fine-tuning (QLoRA), quantisation, and local serving of 27B-class models, plus production ML-ops — model hot-swap with rollback and regime-based strategy switching. I am a Senior/Lead SRE at TikTok, leading distributed multi-country engineering teams and maintaining systems at massive global scale.
I define myself as a driven Polyglot Engineer. I don’t just use tools; I build them. Deeply involved in AI Engineering—creating and fine-tuning models rather than just consuming APIs.
My passion lies in the deep end of technology: Embedded Systems, Reverse Engineering (Hacking), and Quantum Computing. I obsess over Design Patterns and advanced system architecture, specializing in microservice patterns like Live Context, RPC, and mTLS.
I know a lot because I never stop learning. Whether it’s optimizing a high-frequency trading bot or securing an IoT network, I bring a depth of knowledge and a hacker’s mindset to every challenge.
