Software Engineer at the intersection of systems and AI

4+ years in production at Mercedes-Benz R&D — shipping C++ middleware, on-device AI systems, and CI/CD pipelines across 8 teams. Outside work, I build things: AI emergency responders, fan platforms, fully automated content pipelines. Curiosity is my default state.
