How Hera is an Enabler of MLOps Integrations

Flaviu is a Senior Software Engineer at Dyno Therapeutics, the leading organization in the design of novel gene therapy vectors with transformative delivery properties for a vast landscape of human diseases. Flaviu comes from a background focused on Bioinformatics, which is a field that combines Computer Science, Mathematics, and Biology. He took stints in academia by working as a research assistant in Computer Science and Bioinformatics labs before joining Dyno Therapeutics to work on machine-guided design of adeno-associated viruses (AAVs).

At Dyno, Flaviu works on compute and core infrastructure, DevOps, MLOps, and approaches that combine AI/ML to design AAVs in silico. He is also the author and maintainer of Hera, a Python SDK that facilitates access to Argo Workflows by making workflow construction and submission easy and accessible.

At the moment Demetrios is immersing himself in Machine Learning by interviewing experts from around the world in the weekly MLOps.community meetups. Demetrios is constantly learning and engaging in new activities to get uncomfortable and learn from his mistakes. He tries to bring creativity into every aspect of his life, whether that be analyzing the best paths forward, overcoming obstacles, or building lego houses with his daughter.

Vishnu Rachakonda is the operations lead for the MLOps Community and co-hosts the MLOps Coffee Sessions podcast. He is a machine learning engineer at Tesseract Health, a 4Catalyzer company focused on retinal imaging. In this role, he builds machine learning models for clinical workflow augmentation and diagnostics in on-device and cloud use cases. Since studying bioengineering at Penn, Vishnu has been actively working in the fields of computational biomedicine and MLOps. In his spare time, Vishnu enjoys suspending all logic to watch Indian action movies, playing chess, and writing.
