Maria Bader

I am a passionate AI/ML Engineer specializing in GenAI solutions, agentic frameworks, and Large Language Models. My expertise spans from building AI translation systems and conservation monitoring tools to developing regulatory risk models for fraud detection and time series forecasting.

With hands-on experience in Retriever Augmented Generation (RAG), Model Context Protocol (MCP), and traditional machine learning approaches, I leverage Google Cloud Platform and Vertex AI to deliver scalable solutions. My work bridges academic research in gravitational wave physics with practical applications in humanitarian aid and environmental conservation.

Beyond technical implementation, I'm committed to using data science for social impact, having contributed to projects mapping hunger risk in developing countries and tracking landscape vitality for conservation efforts. I enjoy translating complex AI concepts into accessible solutions that make a real-world difference.
