About

I’m Monika Chavan, an AI and data professional based in Erlangen, where I’ve spent the last 8+ years building practical solutions across AI/ML, data engineering, and software development. I enjoy turning complex problems into reliable pipelines—especially when it comes to LLM-powered applications like RAG, embeddings, and agentic workflows—and I’m motivated by research challenges that demand both rigor and real-world impact.

Right now, I’m working at Siemens Healthineers, focusing on enterprise-grade GenAI systems that reduce information discovery and analysis effort while scaling to large knowledge sources. Alongside my industry work, I’ve been pursuing an M.Sc. in Artificial Intelligence and continue to deepen my expertise through research in secure and trustworthy AI, as well as hands-on projects spanning computer vision, multimodal learning, and self-supervised representation learning.
