What I'm looking for

I seek a senior engineering role building scalable, cloud-native systems that integrate RAG/GenAI, with collaborative teams, strong engineering practices, and opportunities to lead technical design.

I am a senior software engineer with six years of experience building backend and full‑stack systems for high‑traffic applications, specializing in RAG-AI and scalable cloud architectures.

At Incyte, I designed AI agents for drug discovery and built RAG pipelines, vector search, and orchestration using LangChain, LangGraph, LangSmith, and vector databases integrated with AWS and Azure services.

Previously, I re‑engineered monoliths into microservices at Docquity using gRPC, Redis, MongoDB, Spring Boot and Python, and implemented feature services handling thousands of concurrent users. In earlier roles I delivered accessibility improvements, AI chat features, and large‑scale web modules for national recruitment and examination systems.

I combine hands‑on engineering with research experience and publications, strong cloud and DevOps skills, and a collaborative mindset to deliver reliable, performant systems that integrate generative AI responsibly into product workflows.
