About

Most CS students build projects. I build and ship them — deployed, documented, and open-source. I'm an AI Engineer and full‑stack developer who cares about real users, real traffic, and real constraints. Over the past 2+ years, I've built systems that range from Android apps running on-device ML to backend services handling hundreds of concurrent requests. Some highlights that separate me from typical "course + toy project" profiles: - Built a multi-threaded C++ Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) engine with load balancing and fast-path architecture, parsing real network traffic and classifying applications at scale. - Shipped a production-ready digital watermarking web app (Flask + Docker) using DWT, SVD, and meta-heuristic optimization, complete with live demo, metrics (PSNR, SSIM, MSE, NCC), and user-friendly UI. - Designed and deployed REST APIs (Node.js, Express, MongoDB/PostgreSQL) that serve 200+ concurrent requests with sub-100ms response times using indexing, caching, and robust error handling. On the ML side, I combine strong fundamentals with hands-on work: - Selected for Amazon ML Summer School 2025 (top ~5%), with 80+ hours of supervised/unsupervised learning, deep neural networks, LLMs, reinforcement learning, and causal inference. - Implemented end-to-end ML workflows: data prep, model training, evaluation, and serving, including experiments with generative AI and LLM-based tooling. Tech stack: Python, PyTorch, TensorFlow, Flask, Node.js, Express, Docker, AWS, Firebase, Kotlin/Android, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, CI/CD, REST APIs, multithreading, networking. I'm currently looking for AI Engineer / ML Engineer / Software Engineer roles where I can own features end-to-end: from idea, to model, to API, to production deployment. If you're building systems at the intersection of AI and high-performance backend engineering, I'd love to connect.
