What I'm looking for

I'm open to ML, computer vision, and AI Engineer roles, remote or relocation. I'm especially interested in document AI, identity verification, and agentic systems.

At TSS Consultancy, I build computer vision and GenAI systems that run in production, not just in notebooks. I shipped a passive liveness detection system with 93% accuracy and 0.5-second inference, along with an identity-document classifier handling about 50K API hits a day.

I also developed multilingual OCR across eight Indian languages and a deepfake detector, and I’ve been moving from single models to agentic systems. I built SmartIngest, a LangGraph document pipeline with guardrails and an evaluation CI gate, and RecruitRadar, a five-agent CrewAI screener with auditable scoring.
