Curate the signal
Label sparse inputs, clean noisy datasets, and build repeatable data workflows when clean training sets do not exist.
Open to ML opportunities
Machine Learning Engineer · Kathmandu
I build and evaluate practical ML systems—from self-labeled satellite imagery to locally deployed language models—when the data is sparse, the compute is limited, and the path is not obvious.
Capabilities
I work across the full ML lifecycle, with a bias toward measurable outcomes and systems that survive real constraints.
Label sparse inputs, clean noisy datasets, and build repeatable data workflows when clean training sets do not exist.
Fine-tune LLMs, train tabular classifiers, and develop segmentation pipelines with compute constraints in mind.
Choose task-appropriate metrics, investigate failure modes, and deploy locally when cloud APIs are not an option.
Selected work
Random Forest classifier that detects observed decline and ranks editorial review opportunities across 144K content items.
QLoRA fine-tuning of LLaMA-2 7B Chat for practical Python generation on consumer GPUs.
Let’s build something useful
I’m interested in early-stage teams where clear thinking, hands-on execution, and honest evaluation matter.
