AI Engineer at C3.ai
February 1, 2024 - PresentBuilt and deployed GPT-based and RAG-enabled AI systems using FAISS and Pinecone, improving contextual retrieval accuracy and reducing information latency across enterprise applications. Designed end-to-end MLOps pipelines with MLflow, Airflow, and Kubernetes to automate retraining, versioning, and deployment, reducing manual effort and ensuring reproducibility. Fine-tuned transformer architectures (BERT, GPT-J) on PyTorch, lowering inference latency and AWS SageMaker compute costs through model optimization. Implemented Spark/Databricks data processing to accelerate ETL cycles, enabling near real-time model refresh. Containerized FastAPI microservices with Docker and deployed on SageMaker endpoints with high uptime while handling millions of inferences daily. Integrated SHAP and LIME for explainability in dashboards to support audit and governance. Collaborated with cross-functional teams in Agile sprints to deliver AI features faster and align with business outcomes.
ML Engineer at Fractal Analytics
July 1, 2022 - October 24, 2025Delivered predictive models using XGBoost and LightGBM, increasing forecast accuracy and identifying significant cost reduction opportunities. Automated feature engineering pipelines with Python and SQL, speeding data preparation and ensuring input quality across model training workflows. Developed CNN/RNN solutions with TensorFlow and Keras for image and sequence analysis, improving model performance over baselines. Deployed Flask-based APIs in Docker, integrating predictive models into enterprise BI tools and reducing insight delivery time. Applied hyperparameter tuning with Optuna and GridSearchCV to improve generalization. Implemented drift detection and bias monitoring using MLflow and Prometheus to reduce production model failure incidents and ensure long-term reliability. Collaborated with data engineers and analysts to translate modeling outputs into clear business KPIs and ROI.
