I’m a Principal Engineer and AI Technology Leader with 23+ years of experience in enterprise software engineering, technology strategy, cloud modernization, and enterprise architecture. My recent focus is on Generative AI, LLMs, Agentic AI, and AI-native software engineering—turning emerging AI capabilities into secure, governed, observable, production-ready solutions. 🤖 Agentic AI amp; LLM EngineeringDesigning and implementing agentic workflows using LangGraph, LLMs, Azure OpenAI and Azure AI Foundry, including multi-step workflows, tool orchestration, state management, automation, evaluation, and human-in-the-loop patterns. 🧠 AI-Native Software EngineeringExploring how AI can transform the software lifecycle—from requirements and architecture analysis to development, testing, governance, and continuous improvement. 🏗️ AI Platform amp; Enterprise ArchitectureDesigning scalable AI platforms that bring together LLMs, AI/ML, APIs, data platforms, cloud, microservices, security, observability and governance. 🔐 Responsible AI amp; AI GovernanceFocused on making enterprise AI secure, observable, traceable, governed and accountable, with practical controls around data quality, human oversight, security, and production operations At Jeppesen, I designed and deployed LangGraph + LLM-based Agentic AI workflows automating extraction and validation across 260 AIP data sources. I also built AI observability and human-in-the-loop feedback mechanisms to continuously monitor extraction quality, identify issues, incorporate validated feedback, and improve AI-generated data quality.I have also worked on AI-powered architecture intelligence, using AI to evaluate architecture artifacts against approved patterns, reference architectures and resilience guardrails.Beyond AI, my experience spans enterprise architecture, cloud transformation, distributed systems, APIs, microservices, Kubernetes, data platforms, CI/CD, security and technology strategy.I’ve led and influenced global engineering organizations across the US, Germany and India, working with cross-functional and vendor teams to drive modernization, architecture governance and technology transformation. I’m particularly interested in the intersection of AI + Architecture + Engineering + Governance and in exploring how Agentic AI can fundamentally reshape enterprise software engineering.Areas of interest: Agentic AI | GenAI | LLMs | LangGraph | Azure OpenAI | Azure AI Foundry | AI Engineering | AI Architecture | Responsible AI | AI Governance | AI-Native SDLC | Enterprise Architecture
