AI Engineer · PhD

Nazli Rafei

Give me a messy problem, a mountain of information, and people who need real answers, and I am exactly where I want to be.

I design and build intelligent systems that turn overwhelming data into clear, confident decisions. My work lives where large language models meet the real world: AI assistants and agents that understand plain language, read through complex technical documents, and find in moments the answer that used to take hours.

The moment I love most is when an experiment becomes a tool people trust and open every day. AI should feel like a brilliant colleague, not a black box. That belief shapes everything I build.

And I bring my whole self to it, the same curiosity that fills my kitchen with cakes and my suitcase with new stamps. Hard problems are simply my favorite kind of fun.
