## Headline

AI Engineer, Full\-Stack — LLM agents, RAG pipelines, multi\-modal systems, production\-grade output reliability \| AI Workflow Engineer @ DemandNXT \| Bengaluru

## About

I build AI applications and systems — the engineering that turns a language model from an impressive demo into something a product can actually depend on\. Based in Bengaluru \(Bangalore\), India\. I've worked with LLMs since 2022\. Most of my work lives in the gap between "the model gave an answer" and "the system did the right thing reliably\." That gap is where the real work is: orchestration, structured outputs, validation, and handling the ways models fail\. What I build: → AI agents &amp; orchestration — multi\-step, tool\-using systems that route by cost and capability, and recover from failure → RAG &amp; retrieval — pipelines grounded in real data, validated before anything reaches a user → Multi\-modal pipelines — voice, vision, and text in one coherent flow → Prompt engineering for reliability — reasoning pathways, not hardcoded answers, with model\-based QA before output is used → Full\-stack AI apps — React/Node with AI wired in as a dependable component → Workflow automation — n8n and integration pipelines for shipping AI into real operations Recent work, live and open\-source: → Maestro — multi\-model orchestration engine: a conductor routes one task across thinker/worker/verifier roles and returns a verified answer with a full decision\-log → Cannon — multi\-agent assistant where each domain is an independent specialist, isolation enforced at the query rather than by convention → ReplyDesk — WhatsApp lead agent replying in \~8 seconds with a live ops dashboard Semi\-finalist at the Google Cloud Gen AI Exchange Hackathon 2025 \(270,000\+ developers\)\. Published in IJRTMR on local ML inference — DOI 10\.59256/ijrtmr\.20250506023\. Building something with LLMs that needs to work the hundredth time, not just the first? Send me what you're trying to do and I'll tell you how I'd structure it\. Portfolio: harshith\-nayaka\-l\-portfolio\.vercel\.app

## Work experience

AI Engineer at DemandNXT, Sep 2026 \- Present · 1 mo, Bengaluru, I build Al applications and systems end\-to\-end \- from understanding the business problem and designing the architecture to building the frontend, backend, Al layer, integrations, evaluation, and production workflows\. Based in Bengaluru, India, I currently work as an Al Engineer, handling Al initiatives across 6 B2B brands\. My work spans full\-stack Al products, internal tools, agentic systems, dashboards, Al\-powered marketing operations, SEO/AEO/GEO, and workflow infrastructure\. I've worked with LLMs since 2022\. Most of my work lives in the gap between "the model produced an answer" and "the system reliably produced the right outcome\." What I build: → Full\-stack Al apps \- frontend, backend, model/API integrations, dashboards, deployment, and production workflows Al agents &amp; orchestration \- multi\-step, tool\-using systems with routing, verification, and failure recovery → AI Search / AEO / GEO \- machine readability, Al discoverability, retrieval, structured evidence, and brand visibility in Al answers → RAG &amp; retrieval \- grounding models in real data with validation before information reaches users → Multimodal Al \- text, vision, documents, and generated media inside larger product workflows → Evaluation &amp; reliability \- structured outputs, deterministic checks, model\-based QA, and failure handling → Al\-powered operations \- systems for content, social media, email campaigns, marketing, and business processes Recent projects: → SPECTRA \- Al\-search visibility platform measuring Al readiness and real brand visibility using custom\-intent queries and search\-grounded evaluation → Maestro \- multi\-agent orchestration with Conductor, Thinker, Worker, Verifier, and Synthesizer roles → Personal OS MCP \- an MCP capability layer connecting Al clients with tools and resources on my machines → BrandForge \- end\-to\-end Al creative pipeline with brand intelligence, generation, multimodal QA, and selective repair Semi\-finalist at the Google Cloud Gen Al Exchange Hackathon 2025 \(270,000\+ developers\)\. Published research on local ML inference in IJRTMR\. I'm interested in where Al stops being a demo and becomes products and systems people can actually depend on\.
