India

Message

At Itilite, I engineered an enterprise AI Assistant that connects Google Gemini and LangChain with MongoDB and MySQL data to provide natural-language insights on spend and policy compliance.

I also architected a scalable travel and accommodations streaming platform that increased system efficiency by 22%. By tuning database parameters and automating archival in Kafka and MongoDB pipelines, I improved query performance by about 30% and reduced disk usage by about 20%.

At Saama, I led a three-member team building a Kafka-based clinical data pipeline that reduced processing time by 52%. I also designed CI/CD release workflows that cut deployment time by 50%.

Earlier at Itilite, I led development of a SaaS Expense Management product from scratch, reducing processing time by 40%. I’ve also built Maya, an AI voice assistant, and personal projects including a multi-agent data intelligence platform and LLM cost observability tools.
