I’m a Senior Director of Data Science with a PhD in Computer Engineering and 10+ years of building AI/ML systems — from research papers to production platforms that make autonomous decisions in enterprise supply chains.
Why I Built This Academy
Most AI/ML education falls into two buckets: academic courses that stop at theory, or bootcamp content that stops at toy examples. Neither prepares you for the moment your model hits real data, real scale, and real stakeholders asking why the numbers are wrong.
Harness Engineering Academy exists to fill that gap. Every course here is built from patterns I’ve used (and mistakes I’ve made) while:
- Architecting multi-agent AI platforms that operate autonomously at enterprise scale
- Leading data science teams through the full lifecycle: research, prototyping, deployment, and maintenance
- Publishing research in optimization and machine learning
- Building evaluation and observability infrastructure that keeps production AI systems honest
Teaching Philosophy
I teach the way I wish someone had taught me: start with the production constraint, then work backward to the solution. Theory matters, but only in service of building things that work when you’re not watching.
Every course includes:
- Real architecture decisions — not just “use microservices,” but why and when and what breaks if you do
- Production patterns — the stuff that doesn’t make it into papers or documentation
- Failure case studies — because you learn more from a 2 AM incident than a textbook
- Opinionated guidance — I’ll tell you what I’d actually do, not just list your options
