AI/ML Engineer | Building LLM & RAG Systems at Scale | GenAI, Snowflake, AWS

About

I am a Data Science professional with a strong foundation in Machine Learning, Data Analysis, and problem-solving. I enjoy working with data to derive meaningful insights and build intelligent solutions for real-world challenges. I have gained hands-on industry experience through my roles at Avasoft as a Software Engineer and as a Data Science Intern at PowerSchool. At Avasoft, I worked on software development and data-related tasks, strengthening my understanding of programming, data handling, and building efficient solutions. In my current role, I focus on machine learning workflows, model evaluation, and developing data-driven applications, with exposure to Responsible AI practices, LLM evaluation (DeepEval), and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems. I have experience across the end-to-end lifecycle of AI/ML projects, including data preprocessing, feature engineering, model training, hyperparameter tuning, and evaluation using metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score. I have worked on projects involving Machine Learning, Deep Learning (CNN, LSTM, ResNet), and Generative AI applications. My technical skill set includes Python, SQL, PyTorch, TensorFlow, Scikit-learn, Hugging Face, LangChain, vector databases, embeddings, and API development using FastAPI and Streamlit. I also have exposure to cloud platforms like AWS and tools such as Snowflake for scalable data processing and ML pipelines. I am particularly interested in Artificial Intelligence, Generative AI, Large Language Models (LLMs), RAG pipelines, and MLOps, with a focus on building scalable, production-grade AI systems. I enjoy working in collaborative, fast-paced environments, taking ownership of tasks, and continuously learning new technologies. I am currently seeking opportunities in Data Science, Machine Learning Engineering, and AI roles where I can contribute to building scalable, high-impact solutions.
