Work Experience

AI Research Assistant at San Jose State University, Dept of Computer Science
August 1, 2025 - Present
Developed an activation norms guided metric for selective LoRA fine-tuning of LLMs, improving training wall-clock speed and inference latency. Deployed A100 GPU clusters and created automation for distributed training (DDP) and tensor-parallel inference (TP). Used QLoRA and ZeRO for memory reduction and FlashAttention for faster training/inference in resource-constrained environments.
Applied AI Engineer at Quantiphi Analytics Solutions Pvt. Ltd.
January 1, 2022 - April 1, 2024
Built an event-driven OCR ingestion pipeline on Vertex AI using Apache Spark, Pub/Sub, and BigQuery to digitize and backfill a 5-year backlog of 50,000+ documents in under 6 hours. Engineered a 6-stage Spark ETL pipeline achieving ~1,200 records/minute for validation, normalization, and reference enrichment before loading curated datasets into BigQuery. Led an internal Human-in-the-Loop platform (React/TypeScript/Python) for analyst validation of low-confidence OCR outputs, with automated dataset versioning and model retraining via Vertex AI SDK and BigQuery. Implemented workflow tracking with outbox tables and event queues for end-to-end traceability and operational observability using Logging, Prometheus, and Grafana. Built Git-based CI/CD for automated Docker builds and deployments to Cloud Run with unit and end-to-end validation.
