Software Engineer at Phenom, Jun 2025 - May 2026 · 1 yr, Hyderabad, • Owned client-facing integration delivery: Led live configuration and sign-off walkthroughs directly with enterprise customers, translating in-room feedback into shipped changes served as primary point of contact for 10+ enterprise accounts. • Spec writing and scoping, integrations: Owned ATS integration solutioning end-to-end for the Requisition module's Position Management — field mapping, locked-vs-editable field classification, and JSON transformation configs plus filter-enabled search built after observing recruiter workflows. Configured 12+ new enterprise accounts in under a year, over one-third of Phenom Hire's lifetime enterprise base. • 0→1 build: Architected a configurable Salary Calculator Engine from scratch, including dependency-resolution logic for cyclic salary components, cutting recruiter effort in offer generation by 90%+. • Designed and shipped end-to-end: A multi-locale offer template feature enabling multi-language offer letters from a single template (40%+ recruiter effort reduction), plus a suite of REST APIs for searchable, multi-select dynamic fields on Offer and Requisition Templates (70% cut in manual job-creation/offer-prep effort). • Ran a zero-disruption migration: Planned and executed migration of Offer Template data to dedicated microservice databases for 11 enterprise customers (7 US, 4 India), preserving integrity across 5,000+ offers/month with no downtime. • Built the operational feedback loop: Introduced automation test coverage, Grafana dashboards, and proactive Slack-based failure alerting, designing APIs to SOLID principles across 5 microservices supporting 30+ enterprise customers — turning undefined, customer specific roadblocks into shipped production configs across 6+ accounts.
AI Research Intern at BITS Pilani, Hyderabad Campus, Jul 2024 - Jun 2025 · 1 yr, On-site, • Identified that LLMs struggle to maintain context across code-switched (mixed-language) conversation, common in multilingual societies. • Designed a multi-task NLP training pipeline (PyTorch Lightning, XLM-RoBERTa) on multilingual code-switched data, using GPU-accelerated HPC training and Weights & Biases experiment tracking. • Achieved F1-score gains of up to 80% across NER, POS tagging, and language identification vs. single-task baselines; co-authored a resulting research manuscript.
Machine Learning Intern at Birla Science Museum, Jun 2023 - Jul 2023 · 2 mos, Pilani, • Partnered with museum staff to address visitor experience gaps at a venue with 5,000+ visitors/day.
