Manuel Marin

Software Architect specializing in AI/ML & Robotics

Austin, TX

Seeking a role where I can apply my software engineering experience and growing AI expertise to build intelligent, scalable systems

Professional Experience

Architected scalable enterprise applications using .NET Core and Angular (15–19), leading modernization of legacy platforms into performant, maintainable systems on .NET 8 and Angular 18.

Designed and launched a greenfield application now valued at over $1M, driving technical architecture, implementation strategy, and developer onboarding.

Applied AI/ML expertise to prototype intelligent features including anomaly detection models and LLM-powered assistants using Hugging Face, LangChain, LoRA, and Ollama.

Built and deployed fine-tuned LLMs for instruction-following tasks, leveraging LoRA for memory efficiency and Ollama for local deployment.

Integrated Highcharts, AG Grid, and internal dashboards to visualize real-time manufacturing metrics and operational KPIs, enhancing data-driven decision-making.

Mentored engineers into senior roles while establishing development best practices and architectural clarity across full-stack .NET and Angular projects.

Prevented a $1M production failure by identifying flaws in a critical hardware/software system and implementing the fix internationally.

Successfully migrated and refactored legacy .NET Framework apps, reducing technical debt and improving long-term system health.

Recognized for bridging product and engineering through technical leadership, stakeholder collaboration, and scalable design.
