AI/ML-focused chemical engineering student building production ML solutions.
What I'm looking for
I am a B.Tech chemical engineering student with hands-on experience building AI/ML systems, production APIs, and end-to-end data-driven applications. I have developed and deployed RAG-based conversational agents, regression and time-series ensembles, and full-stack NLP apps using Dockerized FastAPI backends and hosted frontends.
My projects demonstrate strong model performance and practical deployment: an SVR corrosion predictor with R² = 0.95, an emotional-state LSTM pipeline with MAE reduced by 17%, and a fantasy-sports ensemble delivering <15% MAPE. I combine rigorous EDA, feature-selection, and MLOps practices (MLflow, DVC, Git) to deliver reproducible, efficient solutions.

Work history, roles, and key accomplishments
B.Tech Project Student
Indian Institute Of Technology, Guwahati
Jul 2025 - Nov 2025 (4 months)
Developed and optimized an SVR model to predict carbon steel corrosion in cementitious mortars achieving R²=0.95 and reduced feature set from 14 to 7 via Recursive Backward Feature Elimination to lower data acquisition costs.
AI/ML Intern
Sakhii Care Foundation
Aug 2025 - Oct 2025 (2 months)
Built a RAG-based healthcare chatbot using sentence-transformers, ChromaDB, and a Cross-Encoder reranker to improve top-chunk relevance for queries by 30%; deployed the pipeline as a FastAPI backend integrated with Gemma LLMs.
NLP Full-Stack Developer
Personal Project
Jul 2025 - Jul 2025 (0 months)
Built a full-stack app predicting emotional wellbeing from text using Reddit-labeled data, an LSTM with GloVe embeddings (MAE reduced by 17%), and deployed via Dockerized FastAPI backend with a Streamlit frontend on Render.
Data Science Project Member
Fantasy Sports AI Strategy
May 2025 - May 2025 (0 months)
Built an ensemble (Linear Regression, XGBoost, SVR) to forecast IPL player performance achieving <15% MAPE and developed a dynamic strategy engine ranking players using predicted fantasy points, form, and playing probability.
