What I'm looking for

I’m looking for entry-level AI engineering opportunities where I can build AI assistants and LLM/RAG applications end to end, improve retrieval accuracy and prompt quality, and collaborate to solve real-world problems with strong backend support.

I’m an aspiring AI engineer passionate about building intelligent systems that solve real-world problems. I’ve developed AI assistants, LLM applications, RAG systems, and AI pipelines using Python and the OpenAI API. I also focus on scalable, AI-driven products using Django, FastAPI, Streamlit, Supabase, and VectorDB.

In my projects, I built CropGuard-AI, a crop disease detection assistant that uses a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) system, along with agentic frameworks and prompt engineering to orchestrate workflows. I created a weather assistant with FastAPI that retrieves and summarizes real-time insights, and an AI-powered interview practice app that generates questions and provides automated feedback. I round out my foundation with full-stack development—like a responsive Django furniture website—so I can deliver end-to-end solutions with strong problem-solving and collaboration.
