I’m Smita Gautam, a Software Engineer with a B.Tech in Information Technology and experience building and evaluating AI/ML systems alongside reliable software engineering practices. I enjoy turning ambiguous requirements into dependable solutions—whether that means designing LLM evaluation workflows, validating outputs for correctness and consistency, or strengthening data quality through systematic analysis. I work comfortably across backend and full-stack development, with strong fundamentals in data structures, algorithms, and OOP, and I’ve also done hands-on NLP and LLM-related work like prompt engineering, sentiment-driven pipelines, and structured evaluation. With a track record of solving 700+ competitive programming problems, I bring a detail-focused, test-driven mindset to quality engineering and high-volume AI validation tasks.
