What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build secure, scalable generative AI and machine learning applications, especially in financial services, where I can contribute across data pipelines, model deployment, monitoring, and intelligent automation.

At Barclays, I build generative AI workflows for financial document and transaction analysis, supporting fraud indicators, compliance automation, and enterprise review processes. I develop Python and SQL pipelines, embeddings, retrieval workflows, and agentic AI applications using AWS SageMaker, Lambda, Docker, CI/CD, and Model Context Protocol.

Previously at Mastercard India, I built Python and PySpark pipelines for payment transaction data and trained fraud detection models with XGBoost, Random Forest, and Logistic Regression. My feature engineering and model refinement improved fraud detection accuracy by 14%, while Docker, Kubernetes, and Kafka-based inference services reduced prediction response time by 28%.

I'm focused on secure, scalable AI systems across the full lifecycle: data engineering, model development, deployment, monitoring, and optimization.
