Aayush Nayak
@aayushnayak
Full-Stack AI engineer building privacy-first local LLM and edge vision systems.
What I'm looking for
I’m a B.Tech CSE student specializing in AI & Edge Computing, and I build full-stack AI systems end-to-end—from orchestration to deployment. I focus on privacy-first local LLM experiences with RAG pipelines that deliver real-time document querying without cloud dependency or external API calls.
I’ve also engineered low-latency, vision-driven interactions using OpenCV and MediaPipe, translating real-time hand landmarks into fast hardware commands with embedded serial control. Alongside hands-on product work (Supabase-backed real-time platforms and Streamlit inference controls), I bring technical leadership from national-level hackathons—owning backend decisions, removing integration blockers, and shipping demos under competitive constraints.

Privacy-First Local LLM UI
Project Nexus
Jan 2025 - Jan 2026 (1 year)
Architected a privacy-first local LLM interface with zero-data-leakage design, enabling real-time document querying via RAG without cloud dependency or external APIs. Built a Streamlit dashboard with customizable inference controls (Temperature, Top-P) for air-gapped, domain-specific tuning.
Real-Time Waste Tracking Platform
Clean Connect & Loopkart
Jan 2024 - Jan 2025 (1 year)
Developed a real-time waste management tracking platform with Supabase-powered multi-user sync and role-based authentication for Clean Connect. Built Loopkart, a circular economy marketplace prototype with a Python backend and Figma-designed UI.
Smart India Hackathon Technical Lead
Smart India Hackathon (SIH)
Jan 2025 - Present (1 year 5 months)
Led the full project lifecycle—architecture, prototype development, and demo delivery—advancing to the 3rd qualifying round with a sustainability-focused solution. Owned backend decisions, resolved integration blockers, and coordinated sprint cycles under competitive constraints.
Gesture-Controlled Robotic Arm
Robotic Arm Project
Jan 2024 - Present (2 years 5 months)
Engineered a vision-based HMI that processes 21 skeletal hand landmarks in real time using MediaPipe, achieving sub-100ms gesture-to-command latency on edge hardware. Orchestrated low-latency serial communication between Python and Arduino, mapping hand coordinates to servo movements with <5ms transmission delay.
