What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an AI-first team where I can design scalable backend systems, integrate LLMs (RAG/automation), and build reliable data pipelines—turning complex technical challenges into real business impact using modern cloud architectures.

I’m a Senior AI Engineer with 7+ years of experience building production-grade systems, scalable web platforms, and AI-powered applications. I specialize in designing high-performance backend systems, scalable data pipelines, and AI-first solutions using Python, Node.js, and modern cloud architectures.

In my recent roles at ZAPTA Technologies and AppsGenii Technologies, I led AI-first system design and delivered LLM integrations, intelligent chat interfaces, and workflow automation that improve user experience and business efficiency. I build secure, reliable REST APIs and automation workflows (JWT/OAuth2), optimize performance and maintainability, and leverage testing and CI/CD practices to keep systems production-ready.
