My name is Farid Raisi. I'm a Senior Platform/Systems Engineer with over 15 years of experience, based in Melbourne, Australia.
Currently I work at G1 Racesoft, where I manage AWS infrastructure across multiple accounts and have pioneered AI integration into production systems. I've built autonomous AI agents including a Race Data Validator using OpenAI and Claude with RAG pipelines and pgvector embeddings that reduced validation errors by 85%, a Stakes Level Classifier achieving 92% accuracy using DeepSeek and OpenAI with confidence scoring and fallback logic, and a Horse Checker v2 orchestrator agent coordinating multiple AI services for automated database enrichment — improving data completeness by 75%. I also created a Feeder Bot integrated with Slack using Gemini and Claude that cut manual reporting time by 90%.
I oversee the platforms behind G1Goldmine.com and StallionMatch.com, building internal dashboards with React and TypeScript, and maintaining observability with CloudWatch, GuardDuty, and Security Hub.
Before G1 Racesoft, I spent a few years at Monash University as both a Teaching Associate and Research Assistant, working on healthcare apps for hypertension and diabetes management using Flutter, Swift, and cloud services.
I started my career in networking and systems administration back in 2003, working my way through Cisco certifications and enterprise infrastructure, then pivoted into cloud and AI. I hold multiple master's degrees from Monash University and Holmes Institute, and I'm currently pursuing my AWS Solutions Architect Associate certification and targeting my next move into Staff Engineer or AI Platform Engineer roles.
