The Person Behind The Code
About Me
AI Architect. Engineering Leader. Builder of things that actually work at scale.
“I build AI systems that don’t just impress in demos — they hold up under the weight of real users.”
Nine years into building software, I’ve shipped products across fintech, commerce, automotive, and branding — everything from solo co-founder to leading 35-person engineering departments.
Today my focus is the intersection of large language models and production engineering: RAG pipelines that don’t hallucinate, agentic workflows that run reliably, AI products that people actually pay for.
Based in Bangalore. Open to contract, full-time, and advisory engagements. I also run 1:1 mock interview sessions for engineers targeting senior and principal-level roles.
