In this role, I took on responsibilities as a software, machine learning and data engineer. I worked with machine learning technologies, mostly in computer vision domain. Typical projects involved data collection and dataset engineering, along with implementing, training and applying object detection and object tracking algorithms, and optimizing them to run efficiently on embedded devices.My responsibilities spanned the entire project lifecycle. From problem understanding to system design, I built end-to-end solutions: creating data collection and processing pipelines, researching and training machine learning algorithms, and developing interfaces for seamless model interaction. After deploying models to production, I implemented monitoring tools to track performance, ensuring models stayed accurate.During this time, I also contributed to traditional software projects as a software engineer, supported infrastructure maintenance and development, and assisted with IoT application development.Beyond my technical work, I collaborated with the sales team on pre- and post-sales activities, discussing potential solutions with clients and setting realistic expectations. Additionally, I mentored junior engineers and assisted new hires with onboarding.

In this role, I worked across both the infrastructure and product teams at Cinia.I developed and implemented automation tools to significantly enhance operational efficiency on the infrastructure side. My work included automating router configurations and building infrastructure to streamline the setup, configuration, and management of customer environments in the cloud. This infrastructure, written mainly in Python, included user-friendly interfaces and APIs, which helped cut router configuration and setup times by over 90%, improving quality, and freeing up our experts to focus on key objectives instead of repetitive tasks.As a software engineer on our products team, I mainly focused on IoT applications, facilitating communication between industrial machines, edge devices, and servers through protocols like Modbus and MQTT, and ensuring reliable data storage in databases. This involved designing and building scalable server and router applications capable of efficiently reading and writing data at scale.
