## About

Senior Software Engineer · Agentic AI · LLM Systems · Java · Distributed Systems · 4\+ Years · Open to SDE2/SDE3/Senior Software Engineer Roles I build backend systems and AI pipelines that handle real scale — and I own them end to end, from architecture to production reliability\. At Intuit, I shipped a multi\-tier agentic AI system \(LangGraph \+ LLMs\) serving 100K beta customers, designed 8 MCP tools powering QuickBooks Payroll's first integrations with Claude and OpenAI, and built an LLM\-based anomaly detector projecting a 96% reduction in paycheck corrections across 15M customers at GA\. That's what end\-to\-end ownership looks like to me: ⚡ Eliminated 154 simultaneous production failures — zero recurrence ⚡ Cut a 7\.8\-day archival pipeline to under 1 hour via concurrency redesign ⚡ Raised LLM eval completeness to 97\.8% with a custom golden\-set pipeline ⚡ 85%\+ test coverage across Java, Python, and TypeScript codebases ⚡ Zero P0/P1/P2 defects across a 13\-company year\-end release Beyond building — I mentor junior engineers through structured code reviews, design discussions, and pair debugging, because system quality starts with the people writing it\. \-\-\- 🤖 AI & ML Systems Agentic AI · LangGraph · LangChain · LLM Evaluation · MCP \(Model Context Protocol\) · RAG · Prompt Engineering · OpenAI · Claude · Langfuse · Agent Orchestration · AI Observability 🔧 Backend & Systems Java \(primary\) · Spring Boot · Python · Distributed Systems · Concurrency · Multithreading · Microservices · REST APIs · GraphQL · System Design · Low Level Design 📦 Infrastructure & Data Kafka · Redis · PostgreSQL · MySQL · MongoDB · AWS · Docker · Splunk · CI/CD · Jenkins 🧠 CS Foundation ACM\-ICPC 2020 Regionalist · CodeChef 5\-Star · Jadavpur University \(CGPA 8\.9/10\) \-\-\- 📍 Bangalore, India · Actively exploring Senior Software Engineer / SDE2 / SDE3 roles at companies building at scale\. 📩 DM me or connect — always happy to talk engineering\.
