Software Engineer at Ford Motor Company (via Millennium Software)
September 1, 2023 - Present
Architected a hierarchical multi-agent system (DBC-Assistant) using Google ADK and Gemini 2.5 Pro to automate root cause analysis across distributed BigQuery datasets. Integrated LLM-based services and intelligent automation workflows to add AI-powered features for query generation, analytics, and decision support. Developed a metadata-driven SQL generation engine for natural-language-driven discovery and evidence gathering. Built a FastAPI backend with Azure Entra ID (OIDC) and APIGEE for secure authentication and enterprise API management. Engineered tool-calling interfaces enabling LLM agents to interact with BigQuery schemas and iteratively refine SQL queries. Designed MWATS data pipelines with GCP Pub/Sub and Dataproc, including fault-tolerant retries and deduplication. Implemented a configuration-driven Spring Boot framework for dynamic parameterized SQL, parallel execution, and complex window functions. Optimized BigQuery via temp-table materialization, achieving ~90% compute co
Software Engineer Intern at Seagate Technology
September 1, 2022 - December 1, 2022
Built a Python-based file integrity checker using SHA-256 checksums with SQLite baseline storage to detect tampering. Developed a Flask API and a React dashboard to surface file integrity metrics, reducing detection time and manual effort.
Software Engineer Intern at ADP
