π MSc Artificial Intelligence (Distinction) β Sheffield Hallam University, UK πΌ 4+ years of end-to-end ML engineering experience across NLP, computer vision, and cloud-deployed inference π Currently building Generative AI and Agentic AI systems at Synechron β LLM orchestration, MCP-based tool integration, and enterprise-scale AI for financial services clients π Based in Bengaluru, India | πΊοΈ Open to senior AI/Data Science roles across the UK, Europe, UAE, Canada, and New Zealand β remote or relocation
Previously at Quantiphi, where I delivered NLP automation pipelines that improved claim adjudication efficiency by 80%, and at Winjit Technologies, where I built computer vision systems contributing to ~50% revenue growth for enterprise clients including Mahindra & Mahindra.
Personal automation pipeline for a UK Skilled Worker sponsorship search β reads public government data and drafts content; every risky action (applying, sending, messaging) stays a manual human click by design
- MCP server (
src/mcp_server/) exposing the pipeline as four tools βcheck_sponsor,check_salary_threshold,track_application,list_applicationsβ so an MCP client like Claude Desktop can query and update the search conversationally, verified end-to-end against a real client - Thin-wrapper MCP architecture: zero business logic in the tool layer, connection-per-call SQLite access, and project-root-anchored paths β built to survive an MCP client spawning the server from an arbitrary working directory
- UK sponsor-register ingestion with name normalization (trading names, LTD/LIMITED/LLP/PLC suffix variants) against the real gov.uk register, plus SOC-code salary-threshold checks against actual government thresholds
- Documented spec-and-review discipline: intent contract, I/O edge-case matrix, and an adversarial review triage log per feature; 122 passing tests
π― hire-signal
Full-stack hiring-evaluation platform that assesses candidates on real-world AI-assisted coding competency, not just algorithmic recall
- Candidates solve challenges in an isolated Docker + browser-VS-Code environment with Gemini CLI access; full workspace and AI-session transcript are captured on submit
- LLM-driven 8-dimension scoring (problem decomposition, debugging with AI, architecture decisions, and more), with hire thresholds enforced in Python, not by the LLM's own claim
- Employer dashboard with radar-chart candidate comparison, human override/flag workflow, and an append-only audit trail
- 11-table SQLite schema, 199 passing tests (fully mocked LLM/Docker), and a benchmarking suite run against the real Gemini API and real Flask routes β with documented, file-referenced production bottlenecks (N+1 query, connection pooling, single-worker WSGI) found via that benchmarking, not guessed
GenAI-powered conversational analytics using LLM-driven SQL generation and multi-agent workflows
- Natural-language querying over retail datasets via schema-aware SQL generation
- Multi-agent reasoning with conversation memory for contextual queries
- Designed for 100GB+ dataset scale
End-to-end Retrieval-Augmented Generation system for document Q&A
- LangChain + OpenAI Embeddings + FAISS vector database
- Document ingestion, chunking, vector indexing, and grounded LLM responses with citations
- FastAPI backend for scalable document question-answering
AI agent that auto-analyzes CSV datasets using Claude AI + Machine Learning
- Plain-English queries β automated ML analysis pipeline
- Intelligent tool selection for classification, regression, and clustering
π AI Resume Parser
NLP-based resume parsing with SpaCy NER and rule-based extraction
- Parses PDF, DOCX, TXT resumes into structured JSON/CSV
- Section-aware extraction for skills, experience, and education
- FastAPI batch-processing API
