About
As a Machine Learning Practitioner, I leverage a Bachelor's in Systems Engineering and 4+ years of experience across IT, telecom, and e-commerce AI projects. My expertise includes developing and deploying CNN-based image classification models, optimizing supervised learning solutions (achieving ROC AUC > 0.72), and automating operations. I specialize in Python, AWS, Docker, and Git, fluent in Spanish and professionally proficient in English. I'm actively seeking Machine Learning, MLOps, or AI engineering roles to apply data-driven solutions.
