  1. NL

    Founding AI Engineer

    Jan 2026 – Present

    Neatlogs · Bangalore

    Observability for AI agents: detections on traces, search across runs, and evals a reviewer can inspect.

    • Multi-label detection on agent traces with QLoRA-finetuned LLaMA 3.1 (8B), ~16K curated samples, MLflow on A100s, 0.83–0.91 F1. Served on Azure ML and SageMaker with blue-green rollout and latency SLOs.
    • Event-driven FastAPI services on AWS App Runner with Kafka consumers — ML, regex, conditional, and Presidio PII detectors, with batching and graceful degradation.
    • Search and interpretability agents over traces (FSM streaming parser, adaptive model routing, sub-2s TTFT). Hybrid BM25 + vector retrieval with RRF on ClickHouse (HNSW); six embedding models × four dimensions for recall vs latency.
    • Prompt-template reverse-engineering with FastCDC, Merkle structural diffs, and anchor matching — >90% precision, sub-50ms extract.

  2. TH

    Software Engineer AI/ML II

    Jan 2025 – Jan 2026

    Thena.ai · Bangalore

    Production AI for B2B support: agents, copilots, logs, and an MCP server on top of the CRM.

    • Shipped an agentic chat interface with entity-aware memory and RAG in under three months, then the surrounding CRM workflows (ticket deflection, summarization, platform actions) with idempotency and supersession under concurrent load.
    • Cut chat latency 85% and workflow time 66% with caching, checkpointing, and queued retrieval.
    • Tooling around the agents: MCP server, federated retrieval, web search, NL2SQL, charting, Thena API connectors, evals, guardrails, GitHub Actions, and Sentry.
