Hi, I'm Sai Ganesh Paindla, an AI Engineer with 5+ years designing and deploying production LLM and machine learning systems for financial services. My focus is on retrieval-augmented generation, retrieval evaluation, and regulated-environment delivery. I bring end-to-end expertise across the LLM stack, including prompt engineering, hybrid retrieval, LoRA/QLoRA fine-tuning, LangGraph workflows, RAGAS-based evaluation, and FastAPI/Kubernetes inference services. I partner with credit, compliance, and research stakeholders to deliver AI systems that pass model-risk validation and InfoSec reviews, and I’ve shipped governance controls that unblock production deployments.

Work Experience

AI Engineer at JPMorgan Chase & Co.
June 1, 2024 - Present
Lead in-house LLM/RAG copilot for financial research and reporting. Replaced legacy summarization with an LLM copilot serving 60K+ credit and research analysts; deployed a hybrid retrieval stack (FAISS + BM25) with metadata filters and governance controls (PII redaction, prompt-injection filters, per-user audit logging, prompt-versioning) in MLflow. Built a LangGraph multi-agent workflow for first-draft credit memos and earnings summaries with human-review gating. Containerized as a FastAPI service on Docker and Kubernetes with token streaming and response caching; achieved p95 latency under 1.5s and supported ~50K daily queries.
Machine Learning Engineer at Credit Risk Modeling & Financial Intelligence Platform (ML Stack)
April 1, 2020 - July 1, 2023
Implemented ML models powering consumer lending decisions, fraud monitoring, and customer analytics across a 1M+ active borrower portfolio. Built XGBoost-based uplift models, introduced Isolation Forest for anomaly/fraud detection, and PyTorch sequence models for session patterns; integrated PSI/KS drift monitoring and end-to-end deployment via Docker/Kubernetes with a FastAPI inference service; developed feature pipelines spanning bureau attributes, repayment behavior, and utilization volatility; conducted quarterly drift checks and performance monitoring.
