@vinaysiddesh
AI/ML engineer specializing in data-driven systems and scalable deployments.
What I'm looking for
I am an AI/ML engineer with a strong foundation in data analytics and systems engineering, focused on building production-ready, scalable solutions that deliver real-world impact. My academic training and practical internships have honed my ability to combine analytics with software engineering.
At the University at Buffalo O’AIR Lab, I developed an end-to-end Retrieval-Augmented Generation system, containerized frontend and backend services, fine-tuned models with LoRA, and orchestrated deployments using AWS, Docker, and Kubernetes to enable secure, scalable inference pipelines.
In industry roles, I have built NLP solutions for vulnerability mapping using RoBERTa and contrastive learning at ABB, and led ML-driven education budget optimization, automated seat allocation, and numerous enterprise web applications using .NET, SQL Server, and Python for government and private-sector clients.
I prioritize robust engineering practices, reproducible data pipelines, and clear stakeholder communication; I deliver measurable efficiency gains through automation, data quality improvements, and intuitive dashboards and interfaces.
