What I'm looking for

I’m looking to work on applied AI and scalable ML systems, with a focus on low-resource NLP. I want opportunities to build and deploy end-to-end solutions using modern frameworks, collaborate on applied research, and improve model reliability.

I’m a final-year Computer Engineering student with a strong interest in Artificial Intelligence and Deep Learning. I’ve built and fine-tuned transformer models for NLP and computer vision tasks, especially for low-resource languages like Nepali, and I’m drawn to applied AI research and scalable ML systems.

I enjoy turning research ideas into end-to-end pipelines—like my RAG-based conversational AI with an interview scheduling system (document ingestion, chunking, embeddings, semantic retrieval, and session memory via Redis) and my Nepali grammar error correction using transformer models. I’ve also worked on Nepali image captioning with an attention-based encoder–decoder model and a RAG-based YouTube question answering system, deploying systems with FastAPI and modern tooling like LangChain and Hugging Face.
