Hakan A.
Last position:
Senior Software Engineer — AI Evaluation & Benchmarks at Diversido
- Provided technical leadership for a 4-engineer team delivering 3 major client platforms in 12 months with microservices architecture and scalability solutions — 100% of scoped majors shipped ahead of schedule vs. planned milestones (baseline: prior releases often slipped 1–2 sprints).
- Ran AI model evaluation and model outputs evaluation on LLM/AI vendor APIs: safety, completeness, instruction adherence, and groundedness review before go-live; cut escaped bad outputs in AI-integrated release checklists from recurring UAT findings to near-zero on final promote.
- Drove API development and performance optimization for payment, exchange, and AI services; fail-closed error handling and payload validation reduced integration rework cycles by ~35% vs. the first AI integration pass.
- Applied software testing, testing frameworks, code quality assurance, and code refactoring with continuous integration gates; first-pass PR acceptance improved across the team and production hotfixes on AI adapters dropped noticeably after review standards landed.
- Owned DevOps practices: Docker, GitHub Actions, Jenkins-compatible pipelines, and version control workflows — cut deployment time ~50% vs. pre-automation baseline and stabilized releases across 3 client environments.
- Implemented verifier/oracle-style pass-fail checks in container sandboxes (Harbor/Terminal-Bench aligned); wrote technical documentation so failures cleared in one review cycle.
- Led cross-functional collaboration with product and client stakeholders; translated AI evaluation scores and risk findings into plain-language briefs for non-technical partners, unblocking go/no-go decisions without extra engineering meetings.
- Used agile methodologies for sprint planning and backlog ownership; mentored engineers so mid-level contributors owned AI adapter modules independently by mid-engagement.

- Developed comprehensive data strategy to enhance data quality, transparency, and reporting capabilities across international stakeholder network
Himanshu N.
Last position:
Principal (Data Scientist/Data Engineer/Gen AI Engineer) at Marktguru Deutschland GmbH
Architected an agentic, real-time offer orchestration engine where specialized agents (retrieval, pricing/optimization, and policy/guardrails) coordinate to personalise promotions across customer touchpoints using RAG with FAISS over Delta Lake and low-latency Databricks Model Serving. Collaborated with product managers and commercial stakeholders to shape the roadmap and evaluate emerging agent patterns for production.
Designed an agent-based data quality service that orchestrates schema detection, entity normalization, and validator/exception-handling agents to clean multi-retailer SKU feeds at scale. Wrapped model calls in PySpark UDFs for distributed inference, automated via Databricks Workflows and CI/CD.
Developed a multimodal, agentic extraction pipeline where vision, parsing, and compliance agents collaborate to derive brand, packaging, and volume from scanned images using Claude 3 Sonnet with Swin Transformer encoders. Orchestrated via Azure Event Hub with outputs persisted to Delta Lake.
Implemented a GS1 taxonomy classification service built around cooperating agents for inference, drift monitoring, and auto-retraining governance using Falcon 180B (LoRA-tuned) with a batch pipeline on Databricks.
Created a hybrid agent workflow where a retrieval agent surfaces candidate matches via embeddings and a reasoning/verification agent (Mixtral 8x7B) adjudicates receipt-to-SKU alignment, integrated into a streaming Databricks pipeline.
Built a multimodal attribute inference pipeline structured as cooperating vision-language, rules/consistency, and compliance agents to fill NutriScore, nutrition fields, and packaging types from names and images using LLaMA 3-8B with CLIP embeddings.
Developed a GenAI-powered orchestration system that ingests recipes from multiple websites, parses ingredients through structured extraction agents, and dynamically links them to real-time retailer offers via tagging, semantic reasoning, and business-rule agents.

About the technology
What CLIP does
CLIP, short for Contrastive Language-Image Pretraining, links images and text in one shared space. It helps teams compare visuals and words without task-specific labels. That makes it useful for search, ranking, tagging, and zero-shot classification.
Common uses
- Visual search for product catalogs and media archives
- Text-to-image retrieval for content discovery
- Zero-shot labeling for moderation and triage
- Semantic matching for documents, assets, and campaigns
Ecosystem fit
Strong specialists work around OpenAI CLIP, open-source model variants, vector databases, and Python tooling. They also know how to handle embeddings, preprocessing, and evaluation. For teams in Germany, this often means working with existing data, clear handoffs, and close coordination with search or content teams.
When companies bring help
Companies call in freelance expertise when CLIP needs to move from demo to production. Typical reasons include slow search results, weak relevance, poor prompt design, or image pipelines that need cleanup. They also bring in specialists when they want to compare CLIP with other multimodal models or integrate it into an existing stack.
What good professionals deliver
A strong specialist knows how to choose the right text prompts, prepare image data, and measure retrieval quality with practical checks. They can explain when CLIP is a fit and when another approach is better. They also write clear handover notes so internal teams can keep the system stable.
Project signals
- You need image and text to work together in one system
- Your team needs better search, tagging, or ranking
- You have assets but no clean labels
- You want production-ready guidance, not only a proof of concept
- You need support that fits remote work or Germany-based collaboration
Frequently asked questions
Need clarity? These are the questions we hear most often about CLIP.
CLIP is used to connect images and text so software can search, rank, tag, and classify content by meaning. Teams use it for product discovery, media libraries, moderation, and other workflows where labels are incomplete or change often.
CLIP is different because it can work with text prompts instead of fixed label sets. Traditional classifiers are stronger when you already have a narrow, stable taxonomy, while CLIP is useful when you need flexible retrieval or quick coverage across many visual categories.
CLIP usually refers to the OpenAI model family and the paper name, Contrastive Language-Image Pretraining. In practice, people may say OpenAI CLIP when they mean the original model or an implementation based on it.
A strong CLIP specialist should know Python, embeddings, vector search, prompt design, and basic model evaluation. Experience with image preprocessing, metadata cleanup, and retrieval workflows matters just as much as model knowledge.
A CLIP project can start small, but production work usually needs someone who has shipped retrieval or multimodal systems before. The right specialist should be able to handle data quality, scoring, and integration with your existing search or content stack.
Bring in a CLIP freelancer when you need fast setup, a second opinion on model fit, or help moving from prototype to a reliable workflow. This is common when internal teams already have the product need but not enough multimodal experience.
Yes, CLIP work is often done well remotely because most tasks are code, data, and evaluation driven. For teams in Germany, a specialist may still join on-site for workshops, stakeholder alignment, or to review content and search use cases with local teams.
Look for a CLIP expert who can explain trade-offs, not just run notebooks. Good signs are clear evaluation methods, sensible prompt and data choices, and practical advice on when to use CLIP versus a different multimodal approach.
