I build production GenAI, RAG, and cloud-native ML platforms across Azure and AWS.
What I'm looking for
At Circumcircle Innovation for TVS Motor Company, I own an end-to-end multi-country AI/ML platform across Asia, LATAM, and SEA. I shipped a production RAG pipeline using Azure OpenAI, Azure AI Foundry, and LangGraph, alongside Python-based agentic workflows and FastAPI-style services.
Previously at Syntel (Atos Group), I led enterprise GenAI platform delivery across GPT-4, Azure OpenAI, Azure AI Foundry, AWS Bedrock, and SageMaker. I also built high-throughput Python and C#/.NET microservices for UK Railways e-Ticketing and HCA Healthcare, and mentored 10+ AI and backend engineers.
Across 15+ years in software and cloud engineering, I’ve built reliable distributed systems, MLOps workflows, secure data pipelines, and cloud-native APIs for organizations including HPE Financial Services, British Telecom, Cisco, GE Healthcare, NTT Data, Exxon Mobil, and Aegon Life Insurance.
