Work Experience

Research Assistant at University at Buffalo (LLM Systems)
November 1, 2025 - Present
Built data ingestion and preprocessing pipelines for an LLM-powered academic assistant, transforming unstructured university web pages and policy documents into structured, query-ready datasets. Designed modular indexing pipelines to support retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) with improved grounding and reduced hallucinations.
Research Assistant at University at Buffalo (Computer Vision)
February 1, 2025 - October 1, 2025
Implemented end-to-end computer vision pipelines for smart parking detection, including frame preprocessing, region-of-interest extraction, model inference, and post-processing logic for occupancy estimation from continuous video streams. Trained and tuned YOLO-based object detection models on 10K+ annotated images, iterating on batch size, input resolution, and GPU utilization to reduce inference latency by 20% and training time by 35%. Built a real-time inference and analytics pipeline supporting sustained 60 FPS video streams, producing live heatmaps and occupancy metrics consumed by downstream visualization dashboards in city-scale deployment scenarios.
Software Developer Student Assistant at University at Buffalo
July 1, 2025 - September 1, 2025
Refactored a 5K+ LOC legacy scientific simulation codebase into a modular Python architecture, separating computation, I/O, and configuration layers to improve maintainability and reduce runtime by 30%.
Full Stack Development Intern at Qu Anytime
January 1, 2025 - May 1, 2025
Integrated ML-backed backend services with AWS-hosted REST APIs and CI/CD workflows, enabling reliable low-latency application features for 500+ concurrent users.
Assistant Manager at Jio Platforms Limited
December 1, 2023 - July 1, 2024
Developed and maintained large-scale ML data pipelines using Python, SQL, and PySpark across Databricks and Snowflake, handling high-volume transactional and behavioral data with a 50% reduction in end-to-end ETL latency. Implemented recommendation and NLP-based analytics workflows that processed live user interaction data, generating features and insights that drove a 25% increase in engagement across targeted product surfaces.
