Turning Data into Decisions

I'm a Lead Data Scientist at DataPi, where I collaborate with Asten to support retail stores in fraud detection and performance tracking. My work focuses on using advanced data analysis and machine learning techniques to detect anomalies in transactions, identify behavioral patterns, and provide actionable insights.

At DataPi, we've developed interactive dashboards with Metabase for reporting and decision-making, as well as IRIS — an intelligent multi-agent AI assistant connected to the database, enabling real-time and smart interaction with business data via Telegram.

I also designed and deployed secure on-premise AI infrastructure for BIM workflows at AuxiBIM, building Ray-based distributed GPU environments and integrating Ollama with Llama/DeepSeek to deliver privacy-preserving LLMs.
