Atena Jafari Parsa

Hi, I'm Atena, an AI engineer, a data scientist and a fullstack software developer. I have hands-on experience in AI-Focused projects such as Cellenta iOS, a Cloud-Native AI-Powered OCS, Aware Citizen, an LLM-Based Political Economy Research Tool, Pima Diabetes Prediction on MLflow and an end-to-end computer vision defect-detection pipeline built during my industrial internship. You can browse all my projects here.

I'm a dedicated Artificial Intelligence Engineering graduate (BSc) with a strong academic record (Final Year GPA: 3.94/4.00) and a focus on applying Machine Vision, Large Language Models and MLOps to solve real-world problems.

Fun Fact: I'm an astrophile, a pianist and a composer ♫
