AI Architect building production-grade agentic AI and ML systems end-to-end.
What I'm looking for
I’m an AI Architect and open-source author with 9 years of experience building production-grade agentic AI systems, distributed microservices, and ML pipelines across BFSI, FMCG, Telecom, and Defense.
I bring hands-on depth across the full stack—from ARM microcontrollers and TFLite edge models to multi-agent LLM orchestration on Azure, AWS, and GCP. I’m focused on taking solutions from POC through MVP to industrialization with clear architecture and accountable delivery.
Across healthcare and BFSI, I’ve led end-to-end document intelligence and compliance automation: designing pipelines, orchestration, and human-in-the-loop review experiences that reduce manual effort and improve throughput. I’ve also built enterprise conversational agents over complex data sources to cut latency and streamline access to information.
I enjoy building practical systems that ship—ML/DL frameworks, LLM tooling, and MLOps-grade delivery. From microservices CI/CD with ZenML and MLflow to real-time low-latency AI voice systems, I build what teams can operate, extend, and scale.
