About

I'm Timo Mulder, a bilingual Senior Machine Learning Engineer who is specialized in Natural Language Processing (NLP). I hold an MSc and BSc degree in Artificial Intelligence, and also have expertise in a variety of IT topics.




A problem that many AI developing organizations face is the engineering discrepancy between prototypes produced by their machine learning team and production code. During my day-to-day work, I've gained extensive experience in each stage of feature development processes, from the drawing table all the way to generating state of the art, customer facing content using scalable and efficient methods. The above image summarizes that niche.
