CHIRAG GARG
@chiraggarg1
I build reliable LLM, RAG, climate ML, and production AI systems with Python and PyTorch.
What I'm looking for
At GIST Impact, I build production climate-risk and AI systems, including a RAG hallucination-detection framework that achieved approximately 88% accuracy and reduced LLM context by approximately 20%.
I develop config-driven climate pipelines, bias-correction models, FastAPI services, and geospatial risk-assessment modules using AWS S3, MySQL, PostgreSQL, and PostGIS. My work spans CMIP6-to-IMD climate mapping, retrieval optimization, model evaluation, and scalable spatial analysis.
I also build practical LLM infrastructure and local AI products: a PyPI developer toolkit, an agentic resume-tailoring system, and FileOS, an on-device semantic file manager using hybrid retrieval, SigLIP, and ONNX Runtime.

Job Application Assistant
Personal Project
Apr 2026 - Jul 2026 (3 months)
Built an end-to-end RAG system with ChromaDB, sentence-transformer embeddings, and fusion reranking to tailor resume content to job descriptions. Engineered a stateful LangGraph workflow with human review, parallel LLM generation, SQLite checkpointing, SSE streaming, and resume scoring.
FileOS
Personal Project
Jan 2026 - Mar 2026 (2 months)
Built a local-first semantic and hybrid retrieval system combining dense embeddings, BM25, vector search, and similarity graphs for intelligent file discovery. Added multimodal and on-device ML using SigLIP and ONNX Runtime for image understanding and zero-shot classification.
Python Developer & LLM Infrastructure Toolkit
Infrakit
Oct 2025 - Dec 2025 (2 months)
Published a reusable Python developer toolkit on PyPI providing configuration management, structured logging, session tracing, log rotation, project scaffolding, and dependency analysis. Built a multi-provider LLM client with API-key rotation, persistent quota tracking, structured outputs, and concurrent/async inference.
