Location: Quezon City, Philippines Remote: Yes. Full-time on US Eastern hours (9 AM to 5 PM ET) Willing to relocate: No, remote only Technologies: Python, SQL, FastAPI, Pydantic, PostgreSQL, SQLite, pandas, scikit-learn, PyTorch, sentence-transformers, RAG with ChromaDB, LLM APIs (Groq, NVIDIA NIM), Docker, GCP, Cloudflare Tunnels, Next.js Résumé/CV: https://dawn-andrei-pamesa.vercel.app Email: [email protected]

AI/ML engineer and backend developer. I build data and LLM systems end to end and keep them running:

- A job-market pipeline that pulls five job APIs and RSS feeds into an append-only SQLite store, deduplicates by content hash, ranks postings against my resume with sentence-transformer embeddings, and runs daily on its own (160 tests).

- Andy's Hub (https://andyhub.org), a RAG study reviewer I run in production on a GCP VM behind Cloudflare Tunnels, with per-subject vector isolation in ChromaDB and an OCR fallback for scanned PDFs.

- ForgeAI, a hackathon model-compression platform (distillation, pruning, INT8/FP8 quantization) tuned for AMD MI300X GPUs on ROCm.

Machine learning intern at FlyRank AI (Jul to Sep 2026). CS (Data Science) student at FEU Tech, Manila. Looking for a full-time role on a small team applying AI to a real business: backend, data or ML engineering.
