What I'm looking for

I seek roles building and deploying ML/NLP systems end-to-end in collaborative teams, focusing on scalable retrieval, production pipelines, and measurable product impact.

I am a data scientist and machine learning engineer trained at IIT Kharagpur, with hands-on experience building production-ready NLP and ML systems that reduce manual effort and improve accuracy. I have delivered high-impact internship projects—an AI-driven email classifier achieving 97.6% recall and 98.9% precision and an OCR/NLP resume parser with 92% accuracy—demonstrating strong modeling, embedding, and retrieval expertise.

I combine end-to-end engineering skills (Flask/Django, Docker, FAISS, LangChain, AWS) with practical ML toolsets (TensorFlow, PyTorch, Transformers) to build scalable search, QA and real-time systems. I am collaborative, mentor-driven, and focused on deploying robust pipelines that measurably improve usability and operational efficiency.
