AI / ML Engineer — from research to production.
I build LLM-based systems and multimodal pipelines that run in production, with end-to-end MLOps: fine-tuning, containerised serving, monitoring. My peer-reviewed research (incl. Scientific Reports, IEEE JBHI) grounds the engineering in statistical rigour.
Currently at Tribunal de Justiça do Espírito Santo (TJES), where I built LuzIA — an LLM-powered document analysis system that cut ruling review from 10 to 2 minutes and was selected by Brazil's National Council of Justice (CNJ) for nationwide rollout¹.
