What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build RAG and agentic AI products where I can apply my data engineering foundation across pipelines, LLM/API integration, retrieval, and user-facing delivery.

I build production-style RAG and agentic AI applications, drawing on more than six years of data engineering and analytics experience.

For my Enterprise Knowledge Assistant capstone at IIT Patna, I built a document Q&A system using LangChain, FAISS, BM25 search, Reciprocal Rank Fusion, LLM reranking, and citation-based grounding to reduce hallucinations.

I also added history-aware query rewriting, SQLite-backed multi-turn memory, a Streamlit interface, retrieval inspection, and deployment-ready environment settings.

In my current work at Merit Data & Technology, I develop Python data tools, transform client file data, build Snowflake connections through SQLAlchemy, and document workflows. My background also includes leading analytics delivery at Tickmarks and building Power BI, SQL, ETL, and Azure-based reporting solutions at Infosys and Dun & Bradstreet.
