AI Engineer, Toronto, Canada

farhanbaluch1301@gmail.comlinkedin.com/in/farhan1301github.com/farhan1301farhanbaluch.com

AI Engineer at ML Arteka (formerly mobileLIVE), an AI and digital consultancy. I design multi-agent LLM systems for enterprise clients in telecom and banking, then build the evaluation, test automation and rollout that make them trustworthy. Before that, an MSc in AI with five peer-reviewed publications.

Experience

AI Engineer, ML Arteka (formerly mobileLIVE)

Oct 2024 – present
  • Leading enterprise adoption of an agentic test-architecture framework: risk-based test design, AI-generated tests, traceability and CI/CD quality gates.
  • Designed an evaluation pipeline that scores agents on 10+ quality dimensions with contract-based scenarios and OpenTelemetry traces.
  • Built an orchestrator-worker agent framework that autonomously tests a production voice assistant, plus a design agent that writes branch-covering test cases in under 10 minutes per flow.
  • Migrated a Visual Basic and Crystal Reports estate to Java 21 with spec-driven, multimodal agents; 70% faster than planned.
  • Built an LLM crawler across 20+ bank websites at 99.3% accuracy, turning two weeks of market analysis into under an hour.
  • Led a five-agent estimation workflow that cut manual estimation effort by 80%.
  • Drew Azure and AWS AI solution architectures for pre-sales; helped win 3 enterprise clients across 10+ proofs of concept.

Graduate Research Assistant, University of Windsor

Sep 2022 – Sep 2024
  • Built a graph-augmented TD3 agent (Node2Vec embeddings) that outperformed RL baselines on Dow 30 data.
  • Improved risk-adjusted returns with sector clustering and technical indicators, and made the agent's strategy auditable with post-hoc visualization.

Technical Assistant, Vector Institute

Jan 2024 – Apr 2024

Helped small and mid-sized businesses take AI use cases from problem definition to prototype in three months.

Graduate Teaching Assistant, University of Windsor

Sep 2022 – Apr 2024

Tutorials and labs in computer architecture and systems programming for 100+ students.

AI Developer, Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada

May 2023 – Aug 2023

Computer vision for early crop-disease detection, and a policy chatbot for farmers.

Portrait of Farhan Baluch

About

I started in research: reinforcement learning for trading, computer vision, fraud detection. These days I build agents that do real work inside large organizations, and I spend as much time proving they work as building them.

Most of my week is orchestrators, evaluation harnesses and test strategy. The rest is explaining all of it to people who don't write code, which I enjoy more than I expected.
