Work Experience

Senior AI/ML Engineer (Promoted from AI/ML Engineer) at Astrolit Solutions
January 1, 2025 - Present
Architected and deployed enterprise-grade AI platforms using multi-agent swarms (LangGraph) and LLM reasoning to reduce average handling times for complex business workflows. Developed real-time voice AI pipelines integrating LiveKit, STT, and TTS with optimized token streaming to achieve sub-second end-to-end latency. Implemented robust MLOps pipelines using MLflow, Docker, and Kubernetes on AWS ECS Fargate, reducing model deployment lifecycles by 80%. Led integration of retrieval strategies (RAG/CAG/CRAG) with VectorDB and Neo4j to improve contextual accuracy. Designed 4-tier memory architectures using Redis and Supabase (pgvector) for contextual and long-term memory management in conversational agents.
