What I'm looking for

I’m seeking opportunities to contribute to impactful AI projects in product-driven teams, where I can build scalable, intelligent GenAI applications using strong problem-solving and hands-on engineering.

I’m an aspiring software developer with hands-on experience building end-to-end GenAI applications, focused on scalable, intelligent AI solutions. In my recent AI & ML internship, I built a research assistant using Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) to query and extract insights from academic PDFs through natural language conversations.

I integrated a vector database (Chroma) for semantic retrieval, Hugging Face sentence-transformers for embeddings, and an instruction-tuned Mistral-7B model via Together API inside a LangChain pipeline with multi-turn conversational memory. I’m also driven by agentic workflows—building autonomous multi-agent systems for code generation and automated LinkedIn post generation—while using tools like LangSmith for observability and Pydantic for robust, validated tool inputs.
