Mid-level Audio Research Scientist specializing in perceptual audio and ML

Brooklyn, NY8y exp

“Research-oriented candidate with internship experience at Apple and multiple audio/ML projects spanning speech processing evaluation, listener studies, CLAP-based audio workflows, and music prediction. They stand out for combining experimental design, statistical analysis, and applied machine learning in ambiguous research settings, including building a new onset-detection dataset and presenting VoiceFX work at workshops.”

“Fintech/neobank CTO (5+ years across US and UK markets) now building Payzo Money, a fintech copilot for SMBs covering expenses, accounting, invoicing, and payroll. Pre-revenue and seeking a $5M seed round, with active Bay Area conversations and a clear focus on bank sponsorship plus compliance/operations readiness; leverages Claude-based AI agents to accelerate building with limited resources.”

“ML/LLM engineer who built a production RAG system (GPT-4 + FAISS + FastAPI) to deliver fast, grounded answers from proprietary documents, optimizing for sub-200ms latency and high-concurrency scale. Strong MLOps/observability background: drift monitoring with Prometheus + Streamlit, automated retraining via Airflow, Kubernetes autoscaling, and MLflow-managed model lifecycle, plus inference cost reduction through quantization and structured pruning.”

“Data/analytics engineer who stood up foundational pipelines and services at Meta for the Ray-Ban Meta launch—building a retailer sales ingestion system (S3/Hive) with rigorous DQ checks, 1-day SLAs, and dimensional rollups used by GTM to track sales trends. Also built a modular multi-retailer web-scraping system for out-of-stock alerts and shipped internal GraphQL APIs and an n8n-like workflow builder using serverless (AWS Lambda) with strong testing and observability practices.”
