About

Software Engineer with 5+ years of experience building production-grade agentic AI platforms and scalable distributed backend systems. In my recent project, I architected a secure enterprise knowledge and code intelligence agent using AWS Bedrock, RAG, hybrid retrieval, vector databases, reranking, source-grounded generation, and permission-aware orchestration across documents and GitHub codebases. I also engineered Sentinel, an AI-assisted pull-request reviewer combining deterministic policy checks with Claude-based reasoning and repository context. Alongside AI engineering, I build Java and Spring Boot microservices supporting 50K+ daily production requests. I reduced backend latency by 25% through profiling and architectural improvements, and reduced deployment time by 50% through GitHub Actions and ArgoCD on AWS EKS. Earlier, I improved API response times by 20% at OpenText and application response times by 30% at Epsilon. Core strengths: • Agentic AI: AWS Bedrock, Claude, RAG, hybrid retrieval, vector databases, prompt engineering, evaluations, guardrails, and grounded generation • Backend: Java, Spring Boot, Python, FastAPI, microservices, REST/gRPC APIs, PostgreSQL, MySQL, and messaging systems • Cloud-native delivery: AWS, EKS, Docker, Kubernetes, GitHub Actions, ArgoCD, and CI/CD • Engineering leadership: system design, performance optimization, production reliability, code reviews, and mentorship I also build Resuniq, an AI-powered career platform for ATS-aligned resumes, application tailoring, cover letters, and interview preparation. I enjoy turning complex AI and backend problems into secure, scalable, and maintainable production systems. Portfolio: https://builtbyankit.in
