A Software and Machine Learning Engineer
I'm Vinicius Mesel, and I am currently working on talkd.ai - an open source RAG deployment app.
Previously I've sold a startup (Pluo - got acquired by an American group), worked with data engineering for investment analysis at multiple financial institutions and collaborated on Professor Sergio Verjovski's lab.
My interests range from open-source software programming to music and cooking.
I'm very passionate about AI and how to improve user interfaces using them, so I started working with @avelinorun on talkd.ai
In 2017 I was passionate about Python and helping people find Python jobs (That's why I've built PyJobs - which became Pluo), and right now I'm passionate about AI and how to improve customer experiences using them.
I already talked/gave interviews to several projects, some of them:
Videos of talks and interviews I gave:
- Podcast: Devariacast #16 - Ajudando a comunidade: Um bate-papo com um contribuidor do pREST
- Podcast: Podcast DevPro #112
