Hey 👋, I’m

Anslem Akadu Anuoluwa

<Data Scientist → ML/AI Engineer>

I build ML/AI systems that don’t just run in notebooks they ship, scale, and actually solve problems. From fine-tuning LLMs for hospitals to deploying career assistants on the web, I’ve learned to take messy data, limited resources, and “what if” ideas , and turn them into production-ready solutions.

My work is Iron Man–style engineering: taking raw ideas, data, and code, and forging them into ML/AI systems that actually ship.

About Me

I started my career in Data Science, where I built forecasting and financial models that directly shaped hospital decision-making. That gave me a strong foundation in model development, evaluation, and data-driven insights.

Over time, I realized I didn’t want my work to stop at the notebook or dashboard. I wanted to own the full journey from training ML models to deploying production systems that scale on the cloud and deliver lasting impact.

That push led me into ML/AI Engineering, where I now focus on fine-tuning LLMs, building APIs with FastAPI & Flask, deploying on AWS, and optimizing pipelines with Docker & Bash. I thrive on end-to-end ownership: experimenting, debugging, wrapping models in services, and ensuring they run reliably beyond the lab.

My mindset is simple: ML isn’t just about accuracy scores, it’s about production-ready solutions that solve real problems. Whether it’s predicting hospital finances or building open-source AI assistants, I combine data science intuition with engineering discipline to create systems that last.

At my core, I’m a builder. I learn fast, adapt quickly, and love turning limited resources into working solutions taking “a bunch of scraps” and assembling them into something impactful.
