Rashaad N Mohammed, AI/ML Engineer
AI/ML Engineer
An ML engineer building LLM systems, multi-agent pipelines and on-device AI that hold up in production. I think beyond limits. An AI engineer who actually loves AI. A philosopher who happens to write code. Curious about minds, human and artificial. I question everything, including my own models. Every bug is a question I haven't asked yet.
About me
I build things that actually work in production: fine-tuned LLMs, RAG pipelines, and distributed multi-agent systems designed for reliability at scale.
I'm drawn to the hard problems: AI evaluation, safety, and the gap between a model that performs well in a notebook and one that holds up in the real world. Right now I'm exploring robotics and trying to give it a tiny brain (an LLM).
Work experience
Co-Founder & Lead Engineer · Praxos
A multi-tenant clinic SaaS on paid subscriptions. Built the scheduling and queue engine (WhatsApp-verified booking, cross-branch double-booking checks, a live token queue), AI prescription drafting and vitals-trend summaries, and specialty-aware clinical records.
Machine Learning Engineer · Web-security startup
Vulnerability-classification models and a multi-agent scanning pipeline for automated pentesting: 30% faster triage, 65% faster analysis, 18% more accurate classification, 30% fewer false positives.
Corporate Trainer · EcoTech Solution
Taught AI/ML (Python for ML, the Scikit-learn and PyTorch workflow, model evaluation) and data structures & algorithms for placement interviews.

Projects

A local tool for actually looking at the vectors inside a Chroma database: PCA-reduced and rendered as an interactive 2D, 3D, or unit-sphere view. Companion to my write-up on embeddings.
- Python
- FastAPI
- ChromaDB
- Plotly.js
View, download and manage files across multiple linked Google accounts from one page, with session-scoped caching and read-only Drive OAuth. Shipped alongside: a public ad-booking form, an admin approval panel and live ad-slot rendering on Prisma/PostgreSQL, with encrypted tokens for every account.
- TypeScript
- Express
- PostgreSQL
- Prisma
- Google OAuth
A privacy-first assistant on local Mistral-7B that scans Gmail, filters automated senders and drafts replies to high-priority mail, with nothing leaving the machine. Runs on an i5 with no GPU.
- Python
- MCP
- Mistral-7B
- ChromaDB
Cleaned a resume dataset into role, experience and keyword targets, then fine-tuned Qwen2.5-1.5B-Instruct with LoRA to pull structured tech-stack profiles from raw resume text. Training on Modal through a repeatable dataset-to-checkpoint pipeline.
- Python
- PEFT / TRL
- Qwen2.5
- LoRA
- Modal
A fully offline voice assistant on a Raspberry Pi with sub-second latency: speech-to-text, the LLM and text-to-speech all on-device, RAG memory for user-taught facts, 4-bit quantized to run under 2GB of RAM.
- Python
- llama.cpp
- RAG
- Raspberry Pi
A full-stack lead-research product: a FastAPI layer, LangChain agents for company research and contact discovery, and a Pandas ingestion layer for messy client inputs. Surfaced 3 to 5 verified contacts per company on average.
- Python
- FastAPI
- LangChain
- LLM API
- Pandas

A Deep Q-Network never given a rulebook: +10 for eating, −10 for dying, across 85,000 games. Includes the checkpoint bug that silently rewound training. Full story in the write-up.
- Python
- PyTorch
- Reinforcement Learning
- DQN
How I got here
- Arduino
- first blink
A guy wanted business, so he sold me an Arduino
That was the turning point for a bio student to fall in love with computers.
- Bluetooth car
- B.Tech begins
Built my first Bluetooth car controlled by phone
With a 100-year-old Toshiba laptop, stealing the neighbour's WiFi, and mind you, there was no ChatGPT. Started a B.Tech in AI & Machine Learning.
- 3D Max
- Revit
- not programming
Got my first laptop and chaos began
Having no idea what to do, dummy me learned 3D Max, Revit, everything except programming.
- Praxos · co-founder
- first ML project
Who in the hell introduced me to AI
Built my first project, a recommendation system. Trust me, I spent more time debugging it; it ended up doing lexical search. Co-founded Praxos, a multi-tenant clinic SaaS, and took on lead engineering.
- 2 publications
- trainer
- freelance ML
Not the CV (Computer Vision)
First hackathon: realised not everything runs in production (the Mysuru embarrassment). Corporate trainer at EcoTech. Published at IEEE CONECCT and ISCCSC. From December, freelance ML engineer at a web-security startup: 30% faster triage, 65% faster analysis.
- graduated
- Praxos
- LoRA
Now
Graduated. Still leading engineering at Praxos. Fine-tuned Qwen with LoRA, built a Gmail agent on local Mistral, shipped 9cloud and the Embedding Viewer. Currently exploring robotics and trying to give it a tiny brain.
