What I'm looking for

I want an ML/Applied AI role building production LLM systems (RAG, agents, OCR) with strong engineering practices and opportunities to ship models and systems.

I am a Software Engineer and IIT Kharagpur graduate with 1+ years of hands-on experience applying LLMs to real-world problems, including RAG pipelines, multi-agent systems, OCR automation, and end-to-end chatbot applications.

At Alphadroid I built a reusable RAG pipeline used across internal products, automated handwritten text extraction from 10,000+ herbarium images using Gemini 2.5, and delivered multiple LLM POCs spanning chatbots, RAG variants, and a HuggingFace TTS form-filling system.

I have contributed open models and projects—fine-tuning Llama-3.2-3B-Instruct for code and publishing it on HuggingFace, and building deterministic Deep Research pipelines with LangGraph. I seek ML Engineer or Applied AI roles where I can architect reliable, production-grade LLM solutions.
