+ Collaborated with L3Harris to develop a neural network driven application in a sprint for a government project that extracted and identified audio domain artifacts. Packaged the application using OCI standards and deployed it as an API-wrapped microservice on a Kubernetes cluster for seamless access and scalability.+ Spearheaded the design and development of a user-capability driven application, featuring a drag and drop interface, that empowers users without machine learning expertise to train and implement their own neural networks using raw, labeled data. The application facilitates automatic labeling of datasets for training, streamlining the process of model development and allowing customers to take charge of their own machine learning solutions.+ Developed a computer vision application valued at $1.4 million that identified and scanned visual artifacts quickly with high accuracy, beating out a slower, less accurate competitor application. The 13-week project utilized image morphology, cv-transformers, and feature mapping and was delivered as both a monolithic application and a series of breakout API containers, enabling seamless integration with other systems, across multiple enclaves.
