About

I'm a final-year B.E. student in AI & ML at CMR Institute of Technology, Bengaluru, currently working as an AI Developer at Involynk, a Bengaluru-based startup, where I build agentic and LLM-powered systems for real product use cases.

My work spans the full stack of applied AI: retrieval-augmented generation, multi-agent orchestration with LangGraph, and shipping the FastAPI/Django backends and React frontends that make those systems usable. I favor small, well-commented, explainable systems over black boxes — the kind of project I can walk through end-to-end in an interview or a demo.

Before this, I interned as a Django Developer at Elevance Skills. Outside of shipped work, I spend time on physique training and iterative self-improvement — the same disciplined, step-by-step approach I bring to building software.

There's something I've never quite gotten over: someone I will never meet opens an app I built, at some hour I'll never know about, and it just works for them. They don't know my name. I still, somehow, love being called "the programmer."

Experience

Current

AI Developer

Involynk · Bengaluru

Building AI agents and AI automation for production use cases, working with RAG, Open Knowledge Format, and developing and scaling full-stack applications — from system design to deployment — ensuring they can scale using Kubernetes, then wrapping it all in Docker so it can pretend to be someone else's problem in production.

Prior

Django Developer Intern

Elevance Skills

Developed and maintained backend features on a Django-based platform.

2023 – 2027

B.E. in Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning

CMR Institute of Technology, Bengaluru

Coursework spanning RNNs, GRUs, LSTMs, probability, calculus, and competitive programming.

Everything My Resume Couldn't Hold

A resume is one page. My brain, unfortunately, is not. Here's the rest of the stack I actually work with day to day — presented here because Word wouldn't let me shrink the font any further.

LLMOps

Keeping prompts, latency, and hallucination rates from ruining someone's Monday standup.

MLOps

Docker, CI/CD, and just enough YAML to question every life decision that led here.

System Design

Whiteboard architectures that mostly survive first contact with production traffic.

Evals

Turns out "it felt right in the demo" is not a valid evaluation methodology. Who knew.

Open Knowledge Format (OKF)

Because interoperable, structured knowledge shouldn't need a PhD to parse.

Fine-tuning

LoRA, QLoRA, and the eternal question of whether the GPU bill was worth the 2% eval bump.

Agent Orchestration

Getting multiple agents to cooperate without starting an argument in the logs.

Building Agents

Multi-agent systems that do what I intended roughly 80% of the time — which is apparently industry standard.

n8n

No-code automation, for the days writing actual code feels like too much code. But works well 😁

MCP

Wiring tools into Claude so it can pretend to check my calendar and act busy on my behalf.

Caching (mostly Redis)

If I'm honest, more Redis than actual database at this point — I just can't wait for a query to hit disk like some kind of animal.

Human-in-the-Loop

Because letting the model decide everything unsupervised felt like a great way to end up in an incident report.

The Math Behind ML

Backprop, gradients, linear algebra — proof the degree wasn't wasted, dusted off under duress in interviews, then immediately forgotten again by Friday.

Always Learning, Always Evolving

Corporate-speak for "47 browser tabs open, three courses half-finished, and a deep personal relationship with documentation I'll read later."

Message Queues

Kafka, RabbitMQ, Celery — decoupling services one queue at a time, one dead-letter topic at a time.

Scrolling Twitter/X

Advanced proficiency. Unpaid. Ongoing field research into AI discourse and hot takes. Not on the resume, but arguably my most-used skill this week.

Let's build something.

Open to AI/ML, GenAI, and LLM engineering roles — always happy to talk about RAG systems, agents, or a good ML pipeline.
