@harshitaragha
I build scalable AI data pipelines and production machine learning platforms.
What I'm looking for
At Comerica Bank, I build distributed AI data pipelines and enterprise RAG applications across GCP and Azure. I improved vector-search query latency by 28% and maintained 99.9% production uptime through Docker, logging, and CI/CD workflows.
Previously at Banner Health, I developed secure ingestion and distributed processing services handling more than 7M customer and operational records daily. I reduced batch-processing time by 30% through SQL, indexing, and schema optimization.
My background spans Python, PySpark, Spark, Kafka, dataset lineage, data quality, and scalable backend systems, with experience delivering high-volume platforms from Loopbell Tech and iConcept Software Services to healthcare and banking environments.
