Maintain and optimize backend systems for Pledge Surveillance and Corporate Action (CA) modules in India's central depository (CDSL), ensuring secure processing of lakhs of daily transactions tied to demat accounts, securities, and IPOs. Develop and modify Oracle SQL procedures, Pro*C programs, and Shell scripts from scratch to automate settlements, fix batch failures, and ensure data consistency across critical financial workflows. Monitor and triage real-time queues using Redis, handle live production issues, and execute manual DB interventions for high-risk data discrepancies under tight SLAs. Perform batch job monitoring, docket-based support, and incident resolution, directly influencing systems with strict compliance and financial audit protocols.
Junior Computer Vision Engineer at Proglint Software Solutions
August 1, 2024 - October 9, 2025
Solely led R&D for real-time video analytics on CCTV/RTSP feeds, developing compact models (≤50MB) for age-gender classification, emotion recognition, and multi-object tracking. Engineered custom YOLOv9, TensorFlow, and PyTorch pipelines; benchmarked multiple models to identify optimal performance vs. accuracy tradeoffs. Designed & integrated end-to-end NVIDIA DeepStream multi-model pipelines, achieving ~25 FPS on Jetson Nano, enabling lightweight edge deployment. Built POC systems for retail media analysis and geospatial rooftop segmentation, using satellite imagery and CV pipelines for shape extraction. Deployed CV workflows on AWS EC2 and local Linux servers; optimized GPU utilization and inference speed for production readiness. Evaluated LLMs and image models across tasks like summarization, classification, and text/image generation, identifying failure patterns and edge cases.
AI Model Evaluator (Freelance) at Outlier.ai
May 1, 2025 - October 9, 2025
Evaluated LLMs and image models across tasks like summarization, classification, and text/image generation, identifying failure patterns and edge cases. Delivered structured feedback on factuality, coherence, hallucination, and UX alignment, including GPT-based comparative evaluations. Reviewed and corrected model outputs asynchronously, enabling dev teams to fine-tune outputs for production-grade performances.
