I am a Machine Learning Engineer with over 4 years of experience developing and implementing advanced solutions for computer vision applications. Previously, I engineered a real-time, custom inference server for camera feeds that provides object tracking. This service was deployed in 2 locations and tracked objects per day with an accuracy of 99.8%.I am skilled at working on Linux and Windows platforms, with significant exposure to edge computing technologies, such as the Nvidia Jetson series and custom computers. One of my passions is exploring new frontiers in edge devices, aiming to leverage my solid technical foundation to deliver innovative solutions in the realm of machine learning and computer vision at the edge to bring more.Outside of work, I\'ve golfed for over 20 years (most of my introductory projects are related to golf), I enjoy reading Sci-Fi and fantasy books, and I love detailing cars!Skills: Python, PyTorch, machine learning, computer vision, Google Cloud Platform (GCP), Amazon Web Services (AWS)Github - https://github.com/rmsmith251Substack - https://ryanmsmith251.substack.comMedium - https://medium.com/@ryanmsmith251
