Software Engineer at Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise, Nov 2023 - Present · 2 yrs 11 mos, Bengaluru, • Architected and deployed OV AIVA, a production-grade advanced multi-agent system designed for the OVNG Network Management suite, achieving ≥92% intent classification accuracy and delivering real-time network insights with dynamic next-query recommendations to operators. • Engineered a Dynamic Function Calling Agent with context-aware tool selection, cutting intent-resolution latency by 30% and optimizing the data pipeline for efficient inference on Mistral 7B small LLMs. • Drove end-to-end ML lifecycle in a high-velocity environment, spanning Kafka-based data preprocessing, model training (TensorFlow/PyTorch), and CI/CD containerized deployment (Docker, k8s), shipping features at startup pace within an enterprise environment.
AIML Engineer at Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise, Aug 2023 - Oct 2023 · 3 mos, Bengaluru, Karnataka, India, • Developed PoC for real-time telemetry anomaly detection, ingesting and processing 10K+ events/sec to surface root-cause alerts. • Partnered with cross-functional teams to integrate ML insights into existing monitoring dashboards, improving mean time to detect (MTTD) by 25%.
Research And Development Intern at Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO), Nov 2022 - May 2023 · 7 mos, Bengaluru, • Benchmark transformer architectures (e.g., BioMegatron) on domain-specific corpora, achieving a 4% F1 improvement over baseline NER models. • Fine-tuned large language models via NVIDIA NeMo to enhance medical-entity classification in unstructured clinical reports.
NLP Research Intern at Rank IT Vision PVT. LTD, Aug 2022 - Nov 2022 · 4 mos, Bengaluru, • Built a Dockerized SSML-driven Text-to-Speech service using Coqui-TTS, supporting multilingual inputs and achieving <150 ms synthesis latency. • Integrated REST API endpoints and container orchestration for scalable speech-generation workflows.
