## About

```text
At Kohler Information Technical Centre, I designed and maintained search capabilities for Kohler, Studio Kohler and sister-branch eCommerce websites. I migrated the Studio Kohler backend from Adobe Search & Promote to Lucidworks Fusion and built ingestion and query pipelines.

I’ve also delivered search features including recommendations and product signals, and completed a semantic-search POC using MiniLM vector embeddings alongside a RAG implementation POC. Earlier, at Accenture, I contributed to a search application for a US telecommunications client, and at Tata Consultancy Services I supported enterprise applications in manufacturing.
