What I'm looking for

I'm looking for opportunities to build and deploy AI/ML, generative AI, NLP, and computer-vision products while contributing to research, experimentation, and end-to-end project delivery.

I've led AI/ML delivery at DRDO, where I guided a team of eight developers building an AI-based conversational chatbot that increased user engagement by 35%.

I improved machine learning pipelines to reduce training time by 70% and increase model accuracy by 40%, while managing planning, development, testing, and delivery. The project achieved a 95% on-time delivery rate and 90% client satisfaction rate.

At IIT Jammu, I co-developed a machine learning research paper and benchmarked deep learning architectures, improving training and validation loss by 25% over the initial baseline. I owned data collection, preprocessing, feature preparation, experimentation, evaluation, and result interpretation workflows.

I've also built LoRA-fine-tuned Phi-2 conversational AI, content-based movie recommendations, mood-based music recommendations, and computer-vision models using Python, PyTorch, TensorFlow, Hugging Face Transformers, Streamlit, and REST APIs.
