About

AI Architect and Strategy Consultant with 11+ years of experience across various domains including chemicals, energy, healthcare, and insurance, leading enterprise AI transformation through scalable, production-grade AI/ML systems that deliver measurable business outcomes. I specialize in the full AI lifecycle from strategy and architecture through MLOps, governance, and production deployment. My core expertise covers agentic AI (LangGraph, LangChain, CrewAI), RAG/CRAG systems, LLM fine-tuning, multi-agent orchestration, and cloud-native ML on AWS Bedrock, Azure AI Foundry, and GCP (GCP Certified ML Engineer). At Deloitte USI, I've led initiatives that delivered $10M+ in measurable business impact including KPI forecasting platforms, regulatory automation engines, and enterprise knowledge tools, cutting manual effort by up to 70% and improving decision accuracy by 40%+. Beyond building systems, I actively invest in growing the AI community, delivering training sessions on Generative AI, Agentic AI, and LLM architectures both within Deloitte and at external forums. I enjoy breaking down complex AI concepts for practitioners and helping teams move from curiosity to production readiness faster. Previously, I've led ML Engineering and MLOps programs spanning Search, Recommendations, RAG systems, NLP, and Customer Analytics, guiding cross-functional teams to build reliable, scalable ML platforms from concept to enterprise deployment. I'm also a published ML writer with 25+ articles on Medium, where I'm a top writer in machine learning. - Link to blog: https://medium.com/@niranjankumarc - GitHub: https://github.com/Niranjankumar-c
