Personal projects
Fish Finder ML Worker | Serverless ML Inference Pipeline
- Serverless Migration: Architected a high-performance fish classification service using AWS Lambda and PyTorch, reducing infrastructure costs by replacing always-on EC2 instances with a pay-per-execution model.
- Event-Driven Design: Implemented asynchronous processing using SQS as a trigger and S3 Event Notifications, enabling decoupled communication and automatic retries for failed tasks.
- Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Defined the complete service stack (Lambda, ECR, DynamoDB, SNS) using Terraform, ensuring environment consistency and enabling automated CI/CD via GitHub Actions.
- Optimized Containerization: Engineered a lightweight Docker image for Lambda by pinning CPU-only PyTorch and pre-caching MobileNetV2 weights, resolving read-only filesystem issues and minimizing cold-start latency.
