Michael Onofre
I train large language models, ship production AI products, and build tools that make AI genuinely useful. Currently working as an AI Trainer evaluating frontier LLMs.
Tools I build with
Trained to reason. Wired to build.
Part AI researcher, part solo founder. I work on both sides of the model — improving how it thinks and shipping products that put it to work.
I work as an AI Trainer for a frontier LLM training program — developing and evaluating domain-specific prompts, analyzing model outputs for accuracy and depth, and contributing expert feedback that improves how models reason about complex inputs.
Outside of training, I build. I ship production AI products end-to-end — SaaS platforms, Chrome extensions, tourism sites, geopolitical dashboards — most of it solo, most of it live. I'm an early and heavy user of Claude Code, and I run an AI consulting practice serving founders who want to build smarter.
Finishing a second B.S. in Political Science at Arizona State, already hold a B.S. in Digital Audiences — both Summa Cum Laude. Central Florida based, remote-ready.

Four disciplines, one stack.
From training the model to shipping the product to reading the data to producing the launch reel — I work the full loop end-to-end.

I believe the best AI work is boring in the right places.
Ship real products, train better models, and let the machine absorb the tedious parts so humans can focus on the interesting ones.
