Lead AI Research Engineer at Tether who built a video analysis platform processing an hour of video in under 30 seconds.
What I'm looking for
At Tether, I built a video analysis platform that uses small language models to analyze video, processing an hour of content in under 30 seconds. I also developed vision-language models and reduced processing time by 95% using quantization, pruning, distillation, and fine-tuning.
At DeleteMe Bangalore, I built an LLM-powered web crawling system using named entity recognition that reduced maintenance costs by 80%. I also developed small language models for on-device entity recognition and efficient edge inference.
At Pramata Bangalore, I designed and implemented services for scanning legal documents and extracting entities, supporting digitization of over 100 million contracts. I restructured application architecture and enhanced APIs, increasing digitization speed by 70% and reducing costs by 60%.
