About

I’m Mounika Narra, a senior AI/ML engineer with 10+ years of experience building production-grade GenAI, Agentic AI, and RAG solutions across financial services, healthcare, retail, aviation, and logistics. I design end-to-end pipelines—from document ingestion and chunking to embeddings, hybrid retrieval (BM25 + vector), reranking, prompt/context engineering, and grounded LLM response generation—using tools like Amazon Bedrock, LangChain, LangGraph, and Amazon OpenSearch.

I also develop secure, scalable backend services (Python/FastAPI microservices and REST APIs) to deploy and operate AI capabilities reliably in enterprise environments. My focus is not just building models, but delivering measurable quality through LLM/RAG evaluation, guardrails, monitoring, and MLOps/LLMOps practices using Docker, Kubernetes, MLflow, and CI/CD—while implementing strong security controls with IAM, OAuth/JWT, encryption, and auditing.
