I build AI/ML systems that make it from research to production — and I work the full stack of that journey: framing the problem as a data scientist, training the model as an ML engineer, and shipping it as reliable Python software that survives production.
Most engineers pick a lane — research, modeling, or infrastructure. I work the whole line: multi-agent systems, RAG, and LLM pipelines engineered onto Kubernetes, with the data and evaluation infrastructure to keep them honest.
My focus areas:
- 🤖 Agentic AI & LLMs — autonomous agents, multi-agent orchestration, RAG, fine-tuning, vLLM serving
- 🧠 ML & Data Science — forecasting, anomaly detection, predictive modeling, rigorous evaluation
- 🐍 Python software & MLOps — FastAPI services, event-driven microservices, CI/CD, observability on Kubernetes
- 🔒 Applied ML — production cybersecurity and edge-AI systems

Aug 2023 – Jul 2024 · Mumbai, India
- Deployed FastAPI backend services on Kubernetes via CI/CD pipelines, serving ML predictions at sub-100ms latency while handling ~50K daily API calls
- Engineered a Kafka-based data pipeline integrating external security APIs — managing rate limits, retries, and normalization to process ~500K daily events
- Integrated a Llama-based LLM into the automated code-review workflow, with structured logging and tracing to monitor model decisions and detect regressions
Jan 2021 – Jul 2023 · Mumbai, India
- Built a Python NLP pipeline classifying support tickets and automating routing, cutting manual triage time ~40%
- Trained churn-prediction models on SQL-extracted usage data, helping retention teams flag at-risk accounts and reduce monthly attrition ~25%
- Ran A/B testing infrastructure for targeted campaigns, driving a ~32% improvement in conversion rates
