About

I work on building and optimizing various products at AWS SageMaker AI that enable automated LLM training, fine-tuning and inference at enterprise scale. My expertise revolves mainly around Distributed systems, ML Infrastructure, Backend, AWS, DevOps, SRE. I've delivered multiple enterprise applications leveraging AWS in GenAI and Kubernetes during my tenure at Trilogy. Past: Started out as a competitive programmer in college. Solving algorithmic problems on Codeforces, Leetcode etc. And represented my university in the ICPC regionals and secured a rank of 45 amongst 500+ teams. Did multiple internships and my interest for Blockchain and Web3 led me to interning at some interesting blockchain startups too. Feel free to contact me for a quick chat, glad to connect with fellow developers. All opinions are my own.
