IndiaWhat I'm looking for
Software Engineer with 5+ years of experience building backend, payroll, and large-scale data systems at Rippling and Goldman Sachs. Now moving into AI Engineering, with hands-on portfolio work in RAG, LLM workflows, grounding, evaluation, and deterministic guardrails for model outputs. At Rippling, I own end-to-end payroll calculation features used across thousands of client companies, working closely with Product and Compliance from design through rollout. Previously at Goldman Sachs, I built big-data pipelines processing 1B+ rows and later moved into an SDE2 role working on consumer-banking data models across multiple lines of business. Looking to bring the same production ownership and engineering depth to AI applications.
