What I'm looking for

I want to build reliable ML/LLM pipelines that combine strong EDA with measurable model improvements—especially for AI agents or healthcare-oriented AI—while collaborating in a research-minded team that values clean engineering and experimentation.

I’m a Computer Science undergraduate at IIIT Jabalpur with hands-on experience in machine learning, deep learning, exploratory data analysis, and end-to-end model development pipelines.

I work end-to-end in Python—engineering feature engineering and hyperparameter optimisation workflows across structured, unstructured, and time-series datasets. I’m proficient with TensorFlow, Keras, Scikit-learn, and PyTorch, and I use Pandas, NumPy, Matplotlib, Seaborn, and Plotly to turn data into clear insights.

I’m active in open source LLM ecosystems, with 14+ merged pull requests. My contributions include model performance enhancements, documentation clarity, and end-to-end pipeline optimisations, alongside a strong interest in AI agent development and Healthcare AI research.

In projects, I’ve built an ML Model Predictor with a dedicated EDA layer and GridSearchCV-based best-model recommendation. I’ve also created a unified competitive programming tracker that reduced manual effort by ~70%, and a Bitcoin Transaction Visualiser with real-time exploration targeting under 2-second response latency.
