Portrait of Laura Salcido

Senior Software Engineer NeuroAI · ML · Backend

I build reliable, data‑driven systems and human‑centered AI. Recently: vector DB + LLM features for SASVA, imaging/health projects, and clean backend services on AWS.

About

I collaborate across product, data, and design to ship dependable software. My toolkit spans Python, JS/TS, React, Node, SQL, Docker, and AWS. I care about clarity, performance, and shipping features that actually help people. Lately I’m focusing on healthcare + NeuroAI projects.
