Computer science student building toward AI engineering from first principles. Three years of production web engineering gave me real systems instincts, now I'm applying that foundation to deep learning, model internals, and research implementation.
I care about understanding how things actually work, not just using APIs. That means reading source code, tracing gradient flow, understanding CUDA memory, and eventually contributing to the systems that make modern AI run.
Currently:
- Deep learning fundamentals via PyTorch (training loops, custom modules, optimizers)
- Reading AI research papers weekly — starting with the classics
- Working toward a pure NumPy ML library as a foundation capstone
On the horizon:
Transformer implementation from scratch · LoRA fine-tuning · Inference optimization · Agentic AI systems
- AI Engineering: PyTorch, deep learning architectures, training pipelines, and research paper implementation. Structured 26-month roadmap toward research-adjacent engineering.
- Systems depth: Leveraging C++ and Linux internals background to understand low-level ML: memory layout, CUDA execution model, efficient inference.
- Research literacy: Reading and engaging with AI papers weekly. Building the habit of connecting published ideas to working code.
