Hello, I'm
Nabeel Gulzar
I build LLM systems|
I architect scalable, end-to-end NLP and LLM-driven systems: evaluation platforms, auto-reviewers and agentic workflows that turn research into measurable business impact.
About
Team lead who ships: from LLM auto-reviewers to async QC platforms on GCP.
Fine-tuning (SFT, RLHF), prompt engineering and rigorous evaluation.
Roots in NLP research, search relevance and full-stack data visualisation.
Measurable impact
Reduction in average handle time
Precision/recall on LLM auto-reviewers
Search conversion uplift
CI/CD test coverage on Auto QC

AI Engineer & Team Lead
Turing Inc. · Remote, UK
Progressed from Data Scientist to Pod Lead to Team Lead, owning model reasoning frameworks, SFT/RLHF tuning and automated QC pipelines.
- Team Lead – AI: built AI infrastructure, auto-reviewer systems and high-throughput evaluation platforms.
- Reduced average handle time by 35% by automating data-curation scripts.
- Optimised auto-reviewer LLMs (ambiguity, realism, path correctness) to 94% precision/recall with self-feedback loops.
- Designed Auto QC Service on GCP (FastAPI, MongoDB, Redis, Cloud Tasks, Docker) with 96% CI/CD test coverage.
- Built LLM evaluation frameworks to balance prompt quality, model choice and latency/cost across multi-step chains.

Senior Data Scientist
Daraz (Alibaba Group) · Remote, PK
Expanded product knowledge graphs for search and recommendations.
- Achieved a 5–6% conversion uplift via query rewrites and taxonomy mapping from user-behaviour logs.
- Built NLP pipelines extracting structured attributes from reviews and query logs.
- Deployed query-category assignment to filter non-related products from search.
- Designed A/B tests to measure algorithmic impact on core business KPIs.
