About

AI Engineer with over 8 years of hands-on experience in machine learning, deep learning, and generative AI. I’ve been working in the AI/ML space well before the rise of ChatGPT, with expertise spanning from foundational models like GPT-J to modern advances in chain-of-thought reasoning, autonomous agents, and orchestration tools such as n8n, Dify, and more. My work includes building and deploying models using PyTorch, CUDA, ollama and integrating AI capabilities across production-ready systems, which includes training, fine tuning and prompt engineering the best AI model for the specific usecase. My background also includes academic research, having authored award-winning papers in computer vision and deep learning. I’ve worked extensively across the ML stack — from data preprocessing and model training to inference optimization and scalable deployment. Alongside my AI work, I have professional experience as a full-stack web developer. I’ve built scalable web applications using frameworks like Angular, React, Node.js, and Python Flask, with a strong foundation in CI/CD pipelines, containerization using Docker, and load balancing with NGINX.
