Aegis — Defect Detection for Smart Manufacturing

A deep learning pipeline that classifies surface defects on automotive components in under 40ms per frame. Trained on a proprietary dataset of 180,000 labelled images using a custom EfficientDet backbone. Deployed on NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin edge units across three production lines in Germany. Cut manual inspection time by 72% and false-reject rate by 38% within the first 90 days of deployment.

How I Work

From first conversation to shipped system

Every engagement follows a consistent process — enough structure to keep things on track, flexible enough to adapt to what the problem actually needs.

Discovery & Scoping

We begin with a deep dive into the problem. I ask the uncomfortable questions, audit what you already have, and define a realistic technical plan with clear deliverables and success criteria.

Research & Prototyping

Before any production code, I build a minimal prototype to de-risk the core technical assumptions. This phase usually surfaces the real problem — which is often different from the stated one.

Build & Evaluate

Clean, documented, testable code. Weekly check-ins. Continuous evaluation against the agreed success criteria. I don't disappear into a build phase and resurface with a finished product.

Handoff & Support

Every engagement ends with a comprehensive handoff — code, documentation, evaluation report, and a 4-week post-launch support period. Your team should understand what they have and be able to maintain it.

Ready to start a project?

I take on a small number of serious engagements each quarter. If your problem is genuinely hard, I'd love to hear about it.
