Nikhilesh Yadav
@nikhileshyadav1
Founder and fullstack engineer building agentic AI systems that turn messy signals into structured, queryable intelligence.
What I'm looking for
I’m the Founder building NeoFi—a multi-agent system for financial intelligence that turns trail-based documents and conversational signals into a structured, queryable economic model. I’m designing the runtime around formal economic-modeling primitives so agents reason over typed, validated structure instead of free-form LLM output, using Claude Agent SDK + Anthropic API for ingestion → extraction → structured graph writes → reasoning.
Previously, I led Capture’s pivot to agentic workflows, co-leading re-architecture around agent-first delivery and building ChatAgent—a personalized RAG-powered counseling agent for prospective students. I’ve also built AI Agents like PersanaAI’s flagship “Quantum Agent” (20M+ req/mo), re-architected an Express monolith into modular NestJS/Golang services, and delivered interactive UIs and observability improvements with strong operational rigor (including SOC 2 Type I/II readiness).
