I've built AI-powered and full-stack applications, including a PDF RAG chatbot that answers questions across multiple documents with citations, page references, and semantic retrieval.

For the chatbot, I developed five FastAPI RESTful endpoints for upload, indexing, retrieval, deletion, and streaming chat. I implemented PDF parsing, chunking, vector embeddings, ChromaDB search, OpenAI embeddings, and Groq Llama 3.1 70B integration.

I also built GramConnect, an open-source digital grievance and service-request platform with role-based access, lifecycle management, and issue tracking. I led its development from requirements gathering and Figma prototypes through deployment, building the React frontend, relational schema, Supabase backend, and serverless functions.

As a Computer Science undergraduate, I've contributed to GSSoC open-source projects and collaborated on rapid software prototypes at Smart India Hackathon and Pragati Hackathon. I'm seeking opportunities in software, AI, and cloud engineering.
