David S. Batista

Hello! :)
My name is David Batista and I’m currently based in Berlin.
I’m a Machine Learning and Software Engineer with a strong background in Natural Language Processing.
Currently I’m working at deepset as a Product Engineer and one of the developers and maintainers of the open-source AI/LLM framework Haystack.
I hold an MSc in geographic information extraction and a Ph.D. in semantic relationship extraction and have authored several scientific publications.
Occasionally, I blog about Software Engineering, Machine Learning, Natural Language Processing, LLMs, RAG, and Agents.
Once in a while, I like to wander around instrumental melodies using an electric guitar. If you are curious about it you can listen to it at www.chilosopher.com
