Hi, I’m Bipin Thapa, an AI/ML Engineer with 6+ years of hands-on experience designing and deploying production-grade AI systems, MLOps pipelines, and scalable backend solutions. I’ve built RAG systems on Bedrock + LangChain + Pinecone/FAISS, automated ML releases with MLflow and CI/CD, and led end-to-end model lifecycles under defined SLAs across financial and insurance domains. I love turning ambiguous product ideas into measurable ML deliverables. My work spans OCR-to-structured pipelines, data/ML orchestration with PySpark and Kafka, cloud-based inference at low latency, and lakehouse patterns with Iceberg/Snowflake. I partner closely with SMEs and product teams, write maintainable code and runbooks, and mentor engineers to deliver reliable, cost-conscious AI solutions.…Hi, I’m Bipin Thapa, an AI/ML Engineer with 6+ years of hands-on experience designing and deploying production-grade AI systems, MLOps pipelines, and scalable backend solutions.

Work Experience

Senior AI/ML Engineer at Clear Fork Bank

November 1, 2023 - Present

Architected a production RAG system on AWS Bedrock + LangChain with Pinecone/FAISS, delivering grounded answers with guardrails and retrieval evaluators. Deployed FastAPI inference on GKE with HPA, readiness/liveness probes, and resource tuning to maintain availability and predictable p95 latency. Implemented MLflow experiments and Model Registry with stage transitions; automated rollback on regressions detected in pre/post-deploy quality checks. Built OCR-to-JSON pipeline using OpenCV + Tesseract; reduced manual data entry and downstream error rates in financial workflows. Automated retraining through SageMaker Pipelines triggered by drift thresholds and model performance deltas. Added offline RAG evaluation suites with quality gates in CI before releasing new indices/prompts. Standardized Docker multi-stage builds and Helm releases; generated SBOMs and enforced policy checks as part of CI/CD. Designed Iceberg + PySpark lakehouse federated to Snowflake for BI; enabled time-travel anal

Python Developer at Cardinal Health

September 1, 2021 - October 1, 2023

Built Django REST APIs for core banking workflows with RBAC, audit trails, and idempotency for reliable transaction handling. Optimized ORM/SQL and implemented caching to reduce p95 latency and increase throughput during peak hours on AWS. Split monolithic endpoints into microservices deployed to Kubernetes; used blue/green releases for safer iterations. Implemented async tasks and schedulers for reconciliations, notifications, and reporting to offload real-time paths. Built ETL and data migrations to Snowflake/PostgreSQL with validations and monitoring hooks for data quality. Automated CI/CD with Jenkins/Git; integrated unit, integration, and contract tests to prevent regressions. Added CloudWatch/Prometheus observability with structured logs and alerting on SLO breaches. Instrumented API usage analytics, quotas, and client keys for visibility and control across internal consumers. Conducted load testing with realistic datasets and guided DB tuning/caching decisions prior to releases.
