I’m an AI/ML engineer with about 3.5+ years of experience building scalable machine learning and generative AI systems, with a strong focus on production-grade reliability. I specialize in LLM-powered applications, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), and AI infrastructure, and I enjoy turning models into dependable services that improve performance, latency, and response quality. Across my roles, I’ve designed and deployed end-to-end systems—from REST APIs handling high request volumes to MLOps pipelines for monitoring, evaluation, CI/CD, and drift detection. I’m comfortable with cloud platforms (AWS and GCP), streaming and data engineering stacks (Airflow, Kafka, Spark), and modern deployment tooling (Docker, Kubernetes, MLflow), and I thrive on measurable impact in real enterprise environments.
