Bridging the gap between robust AI models and scalable production systems.

About Me

Tamer Elkot

I am an AI Engineer specializing in Computer Vision, MLOps, and backend development, with hands-on expertise in designing and deploying end-to-end AI systems—from data pipelines to production inference servers. I work with TensorFlow, PyTorch, YOLOv8, FastAPI, Docker, and PostgreSQL to deliver scalable, production-ready machine learning solutions.

With a strong engineering mindset and a background in Mechatronics Engineering, I have a proven ability to lead cross-functional teams and deliver measurable results. I am passionate about applying AI to solve impactful problems in agriculture, logistics, healthcare, and security, handling the full lifecycle from data engineering to cloud deployment.
