About

Most engineers demo AI. I productionize it. As Product Architect on an enterprise data-management platform used by Fortune 500 companies, I lead GenAI strategy hands-on: LLM features that have served 10,000+ production requests over 2+ years, with adoption climbing every release as more customers upgrade into them. Fine-tuned models that turn plain English into working automation code. AI agents wired into real business systems (Microsoft Graph, Azure Functions). I work across the model landscape (OpenAI GPT-5, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini) and architect so you're never locked into one vendor. I know what breaks at scale because I've broken it and fixed it: token cost creep, prompt injection, hallucination handling, latency under load. That's the difference between an AI feature and an AI liability. The engineering behind the AI, built over 8 years of enterprise full-stack: → Backend: .NET/C#, Java Spring Boot, REST APIs → Frontend: Angular (incl. micro-frontends), React → Cloud: Azure (Functions, DevOps, Key Vault, Databricks) · AWS Certified Solutions Architect → Data: SQL Server, Oracle, PostgreSQL, MongoDB · compiler/parser work across DB dialects (ANTLR) → Enterprise hygiene: SSO, Apigee, SonarQube/Veracode compliance, Splunk Along the way I've built a banking platform from scratch, led a 10-developer migration team that delivered ahead of schedule, and designed SQL dialect compilers for Oracle, Postgres, and BigQuery. My honest rule with AI: 70% of "we need fine-tuning" projects actually need RAG or a better prompt. I'll always tell you which, and build the cheapest thing that works. 📩 nigamagarwal5@gmail.com
