PRAJWAL THAKARE

I’m a full-stack developer and AI/ML engineer based in Pune, focused on shipping production-ready web apps with measurable performance and quality improvements. As a Web Developer Intern, I built responsive, mobile-first React applications—improving page load speed by 25% through code optimization and lazy loading, and reducing UI defects by 30% through systematic debugging and component refactoring.

I build end-to-end AI experiences that go beyond prototypes: my RAG Document Intelligence Platform uses a LangChain RAG pipeline with ChromaDB vector storage and Gemini/OpenAI APIs to deliver context-aware, source-cited answers. I also extended retrieval with JWT auth, MongoDB-backed history, streaming responses, Tailwind drag-and-drop UI, and hybrid FAISS + BM25 re-ranking—improving answer relevance by 28% over naive retrieval.

I’m equally driven by data and real-time user impact. In my AI-Powered Job & Talent Matching Portal, I implemented role-based MERN authentication, live status updates with Socket.io, and Stripe premium listings, then used a Gemini-powered cosine-similarity matching engine to improve fit accuracy by 42% over keyword filtering—paired with Power BI-style analytics dashboards.
