About me
I am a GenAI / ML engineer based in Guimarães, Portugal, with a long-running focus on NLP and systems people actually open. I ship production AI products — a Portuguese legal RAG assistant (LexPT) and a bilingual fitness coaching SaaS for a paying trainer — and maintain a personal knowledge stack: YouTube → LLM wiki → spaced-repetition apps, Chinese vocabulary SRS, and study tools.
Trilingual in Portuguese (native), English (fluent), and Mandarin (native). Outside of engineering I referee football for AF Braga, train streetlifting, run endurance events (Porto Marathon, Nov 2025), and compete in Go (national silver). Open to relocation across Europe, Asia, and the Middle East. Targeting GenAI / ML roles focused on RAG, LLM applications, and production delivery.
Selected work: LexPT · FitnessAPP · Streetlifting · Wiki Flashcards · Second Brain
