AI/ML Engineer & PhD Researcher in AI

Sebastian
Buzdugan

PhD-grade AI insight, builder-friendly delivery.

I break down what new AI papers and tools mean for engineers who ship — paper breakdowns, hands-on tool guides (Claude Code, MCP, RAG), and engineering-grade commentary. Also building @getfrai, open-source tooling for responsible AI.

What I do

Paper breakdowns

What the paper said, what the benchmark actually shows, and what it changes for production systems.

Tool guides

Hands-on, end-to-end builds with Claude Code, MCP servers, and RAG stacks — the way you'd actually ship them.

AI engineering

Agents, retrieval, and infrastructure — opinionated, builder-first commentary on what holds up in production.

Responsible AI research

PhD work on deep learning for medical imaging, plus FRAI: tooling for the EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF and ISO/IEC 42001.
