About

I'm Prabod Rathnayaka, a Senior Machine Learning Engineer and AI Researcher with over 6 years of experience in Natural Language Processing, Voice AI, and multimodal learning systems.

Currently, I work at John Snow Labs, where I contribute to advancing Spark NLP - one of the most widely used NLP libraries in the enterprise world. My work focuses on integrating state-of-the-art language models and embedding systems into production-ready solutions.

I hold a PhD in Artificial Intelligence and am passionate about bridging the gap between cutting-edge research and real-world applications. My research interests include:

• Large Language Models and their optimization
• Multimodal AI systems
• Voice AI and speech processing
• Efficient model deployment and scaling

When I'm not working on AI systems, I enjoy writing about machine learning, contributing to open-source projects, and exploring the latest developments in the field.
