Nishan kharel

I’m a Data Scientist and AI Engineer with 2+ years of hands-on experience developing machine learning, NLP, computer vision, and Generative AI solutions. I deliver end-to-end AI pipelines from data preprocessing to production deployment using Python, SQL, LLMs, RAG, and deep learning frameworks.

In my Applied Scientist role at Samni Labs, I focused on fine-tuning transformer-based models for healthcare data processing and AI automation. As an AI Engineer (Trainee/Internship) at Mantra Ideas Tech, I engineered a Bank Note OCR system with computer vision and deep learning, and fine-tuned Text-to-Speech models for Nepali voice synthesis using VibeVoice and voice cloning.

Through my Data Scientist internship/full-time experience at Mind Risers Technology, I built an AI-powered ATS system for Recruit Nepal using Tesseract OCR, spaCy NER, and semantic search. I also created a Nepali fake news classifier using BERT-based models and developed an automated Job Description Generator with secure API integration—plus I supported teaching and curriculum work through Namaste Network.

I’m especially energized by projects that turn complex data into measurable impact, whether it’s RAG pipelines with vector search (pgvector/Qdrant) or domain-specific modeling. I build with practical engineering in mind—fast iteration, containerization (Docker), and reliable deployment—so models perform well in real-world constraints.
