What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build reliable AI and backend products, especially RAG, local AI, LLM-agent, and computer-vision systems, while contributing to open source and solving practical reliability, latency, and safety challenges.

I'm building AI and backend systems through open-source work at Sugar Labs and as a Backend Engineer at Blockchain Research Lab. I redesigned Sugar-AI's RAGAgent lifecycle with lazy loading and FastAPI startup dependencies, cutting startup RAM consumption by approximately 50%.

At Blockchain Research Lab, I architect blockchain data-indexing services with Django and REST APIs, built WebSocket streaming for live event monitoring, and reduced average API response latency by approximately 30% through query profiling and index tuning.

I've also built NyayaGPT, a legal RAG assistant that improved retrieval accuracy to approximately 85% across 1,500+ law sections, and optimized inference latency from approximately 3.8 seconds to 2.1 seconds. My work spans local AI, LLM agents, computer vision, and accessibility-focused gesture control.
