Hi, I’m Bindu Bhargava Reddy Chintam 👋

Principal ML/AI ArchitectLLM/RAG/Agentic AIMLOps/LLMOpsData/Cloud EngineeringResearch Scientist

📍 Stony Brook, NY

I build production-grade AI systems—especially agentic workflows, RAG with evaluation + guardrails, and LLMOps/MLOps on AWS / Azure / GCP—turning research prototypes into monitored, secure, cost-aware services.


🚀 What I focus on

  • Agentic AI systems (LangGraph, CrewAI, AutoGen) and tool-graph orchestration
  • RAG in production: retrieval design, reranking, evals (RAGAS/TruLens), guardrails, and governance
  • LLMOps/MLOps: model serving, observability, drift/eval jobs, and reliability SLOs
  • Data platforms & streaming: event-driven pipelines, lakehouse patterns, and scalable feature delivery
  • AI infra: Kubernetes + Terraform + GPU scheduling/autoscaling
  • Distributed systems foundations: fault tolerance, consistency trade-offs, RPC, and scalable service design

🕸️ Distributed Systems & OS (coursework + hands-on)

  • Consensus & replication: Raft, Paxos / Multi-Paxos, PBFT; leader election; failure handling
  • Transactions & coordination: sharding, replication strategies, 2PC concepts for cross-partition operations
  • RPC & networking: gRPC + Protobuf, service boundaries, timeouts/retries, load balancing fundamentals
  • Concurrency: threads vs async I/O, synchronization basics, race conditions/deadlocks (and avoidance patterns)
  • OS fundamentals: Linux, process lifecycle, scheduling concepts, memory/I/O basics, performance profiling
