I am Ruchika Arora, and I hold a Master of Applied Information Technology from Victoria University, Melbourne. I design and develop Generative AI, multi-agent, and optimization-driven decision systems using LLM orchestration, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), and constraint optimization models deployed in secure cloud environments. I have hands-on experience building AI applications with Python, Hugging Face models, RESTful APIs, and responsive frontend technologies, along with model optimization, pipeline deployment, structured AI workflows, and strategic prompt design. I have gained practical exposure through academic research, independent AI projects, AWS-based deployments in Linux environments, and an Australian web development internship. I am passionate about leveraging AI to solve real-world challenges, improve accessibility, and build meaningful, user-centered solutions.
