LLM systems · Retrieval
Knowledge-grounded AI that earns user trust
Hybrid search, reranking, structured citations, and continuous evaluation—designed as one observable production system.
Senior Machine Learning Engineer
I design and ship reliable LLM systems, RAG pipelines, AI agents, and evaluation infrastructure—turning ambitious AI ideas into software people can actually trust.

01 / Selected work
Representative production problems I solve—from retrieval quality and agent reliability to the infrastructure that keeps models useful.
LLM systems · Retrieval
Hybrid search, reranking, structured citations, and continuous evaluation—designed as one observable production system.
Agents · Automation
Stateful workflows that know when to act, when to verify, and when a human should stay in control.
ML systems · Delivery
Tested APIs, deployment pipelines, monitoring, and feedback loops that turn model behavior into an engineering discipline.
02 / Expertise
The model is only one component. I connect data, retrieval, orchestration, evaluation, APIs, and monitoring into a system that performs outside the notebook.
Production patterns for context, memory, structured outputs, caching, and cost-aware inference.
Chunking, hybrid search, embeddings, rerankers, metadata, and grounded answer generation.
Tool-calling workflows, state machines, human checkpoints, retries, and safe execution boundaries.
Golden datasets, retrieval metrics, quality rubrics, regression suites, and online feedback loops.
FastAPI services, containers, async workloads, versioning, monitoring, and deployment automation.
Problem framing, experimentation, representation learning, classification, and pragmatic model selection.
Tools I reach for
03 / Ways to work together
I work best with teams building serious AI products—where strong engineering judgment matters as much as model knowledge.
Bring me a brittle prototype, a retrieval problem, or a product idea that needs a pragmatic path to production.
04 / About
I'm Abu Sufyan, a Machine Learning Engineer with 6+ years across software engineering and applied AI. My work centers on LLMs, retrieval, agents, and the systems discipline required to run them well.
My foundation includes graduate research in machine-learning-based malware detection for IoT and experience teaching Python. That mix shaped how I work: understand deeply, explain clearly, and ship carefully.
How I work
Define the user problem, constraints, and success signal.
Ship the smallest architecture that can prove the value.
Measure quality, failure modes, latency, cost, and safety.
Add observability, feedback loops, and operational resilience.
