Data Science | Applied AI/ML | Software Engineering
Marcos Vieira
I build reproducible data, applied AI/ML, and software systems that turn experiments into validated, documented, and decision-ready workflows.
Selected Evidence
Portfolio Work
The portfolio is organized around evidence: shipped software, reproducible data and ML workflows, peer-reviewed research engineering, scientific computing, and technical writing that explains decisions and limitations.
Software Engineering | Public MVP
The Tavern's Ledger
A full-stack cataloging system that demonstrates API design, a dynamic SPA frontend, Docker, tests, CI/CD, and design-first documentation.
- RESTful Flask backend and vanilla JavaScript SPA frontend.
- API configuration used as a single source of truth for frontend behavior.
- Documentation, tests, Docker, and CI/CD treated as part of delivery.
Data Science / Applied AI/ML | Active track
Operational AI Field Notes
Reproducible applied AI experiments and technical write-ups focused on model behavior, evaluation, service boundaries, and operational contracts.
- Classical ML, computer vision, NLP, and LLM/RAG experiments.
- Notebook-to-service refactors with tests and explicit evaluation boundaries.
- Focus areas include calibration, text intelligence, retrieval evaluation, and operational decision workflows.
Research Engineering | Peer-reviewed
GBM scRNA-seq Attractor Analysis
Open-source research engineering around single-cell RNA sequencing, dimensionality reduction, clustering validation, and stability-oriented gene regulatory network analysis.
- First-author Scientific Reports paper and related IJMS publications.
- High-dimensional biological data workflows with statistical validation.
- Bridges computational biology, scientific software, and public research artifacts.
Scientific Computing | Published research
Timepix Pixel-Detector Pipelines
Sensor-data workflows for radiotherapy photon-beam spectrum reconstruction, including calibration, simulation, event reconstruction, and uncertainty-aware validation.
- Pixel-level data processing and custom C++/ROOT algorithms.
- Simulation, inverse-problem reasoning, curve fitting, and chi-square validation.
- Strong foundation for data analysis, scientific computing, and uncertainty handling.
Positioning
From Research To Delivery
My background connects applied physics, computational biology, scientific software, and practical data/AI workflows. The portfolio is designed for software, applied AI/ML, data science, analytics, and data engineering roles where evaluation, reproducibility, technical communication, and handoff-ready code matter.
Formless Solutions extends this work into an emerging consulting studio focused on applied AI, data and software systems, strategy, and decision workflows for complex problems.
Applied AI/ML Focus
Current Case Study Directions
The active AI/ML portfolio track focuses on practical workflows that make model behavior visible: calibration, text intelligence, retrieval quality, evidence grounding, and business-facing interpretation.
Face Recognition Calibration
Thresholds, FAR/FRR, open-set limits, and why calibration is not liveness detection.
Complaint Intelligence
Text signals, sentiment limits, aspect cues, and operational triage over public complaint data.
Contract RAG Evaluation
Citations, abstention, retrieval quality, and auditable document intelligence.
