I build benchmark-driven LLM inference, model-serving, and cloud-native AI systems.
What I'm looking for
I build benchmark-driven AI systems for LLM inference, model serving, and cloud-native infrastructure, with a focus on TTFT, latency, throughput, GPU utilization, reliability, observability, and cost.
At HCLTech, I work as an AI & Machine Learning Engineer, building enterprise operations and reliability experience through technical training and cross-functional AI and automation projects.
Through Independent AI Systems Lab, I built Aegis, a Kubernetes-based LLM serving platform, and a configuration-driven benchmark suite comparing TensorRT-LLM, Triton, vLLM, LMDeploy/TurboMind, and TGI. I also built StoryOps Studio, QEPO, and a multilingual AI-powered grievance management system.
Previously at 100xEngineers, I architected generative AI solutions for sales intelligence, including RAG, embeddings, AI agents, data pipelines, lead scoring, personalization, APIs, and workflow automation. I’m interested in teams building measurable, reliable AI systems rather than demos that only work under ideal conditions.
