AI Systems &amp; DevOps Engineer \| Jenkins CI/CD \| Docker \| Python \| Building Scalable Backend Systems

## About

Final\-year Engineering student specializing in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, with hands\-on experience in building scalable backend systems and exploring DevOps practices\. I have worked on developing production\-level systems including a containerized RAG backend using FastAPI, Redis, and Qdrant, along with asynchronous data pipelines and vector search architectures\. My experience also includes designing data warehouses, building ETL pipelines, and working with large\-scale datasets using Python and SQL\. Currently, I am gaining practical exposure to DevOps through my internship at IEEE, where I am working with Jenkins to understand and implement CI/CD pipelines, automate workflows, and improve deployment processes\. I am also exploring containerization using Docker and orchestration concepts with Kubernetes\. I am particularly interested in building reliable, scalable systems that combine AI capabilities with efficient infrastructure\. I enjoy working at the intersection of backend engineering, DevOps, and intelligent systems\. Open to opportunities in DevOps, Backend Engineering, and AI\-driven systems\.
