I am Andras Schmelczer, a software engineer with an MSc in Computer Science and more
|
|
than six years of professional engineering experience. My work spans AI/ML systems,
|
|
web platforms, graphics, simulations, and tools, and I like projects where
|
|
architecture, constraints, and product usefulness all matter.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
I am especially interested in architecting and building large-scale systems,
|
|
particularly around AI/ML. In my own time I also return to shaders, data
|
|
visualization, simulations, and occasionally microcontrollers. The
|
|
<a href="/articles/">articles</a> and <a href="/projects/">projects</a> indexes are the
|
|
best way to understand that range; the CV and contact links are here when a direct summary
|
|
is more useful.

I am strongest when I can reason through a system end to end: the data model, the
|
|
API shape, the performance constraints, the operational risks, and the human path
|
|
through the tool. The projects on this site are older and newer examples of that
|
|
habit.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
I care about simple interfaces over accidental complexity, and I prefer technical
|
|
depth that can be explained clearly. That is why this site is structured around
|
|
articles rather than screenshots and slogans.
