About

Experienced Data Science Lead specializing in Large Language Models, Vision, and Search Systems with a proven track record of delivering high-impact solutions across industry leaders like Flipkart (Walmart) and Visa. Currently leading end-to-end ML systems at Nuitee, where I've pioneered industry leading solutions in hotel + room mapping and content enhancement that secured partnerships with industry giants like Booking.com. My work spans from implementing cutting-edge LLM applications using GPT and Claude to scaling GPU clusters for high-performance image processing systems. I'm particularly passionate about combining ML with practical business impact, from Architecting Generative AI solutions for furniture visualization at Flipkart my Query Rewriting model at Flipkart that drove $80M in additional revenue. Beyond the technical realm, I'm deeply interested in the intersection of technology and consciousness. My journey includes completing three Vipassana Meditation courses and conducting research on meditation's effects on brainwave patterns using EEG data and ML. This unique blend of technical expertise and mindfulness practice influences my approach to leadership and problem-solving. Open to connecting with fellow tech enthusiasts, meditation practitioners, or anyone interested in discussing the future of AI and consciousness. Let's explore how technology can make a meaningful impact!

Software Engineer

May 2016 – Jul 2019 · 3 yrs 2 mos · Bengaluru Area, India

Built a NLP based data querying system that allows people with no technical background to query databases in plain English for which I recieved a Trade Secret and Visa Innovator Award
Developed the NLP server using Open Source Tech - Rasa NLU, Scikit Learn, Word2Vec, Python Klein Server.
For the WebApp, used AngularJS for frontend and Spring for backend
✦ Started the project as POC and grew it to a production ready application.
✦ Mentored 3 interns who received pre-placement offers.
✦ Awarded a Trade Secret for the column matching algorithm for the NLP model.
✦ Awarded the Visa Innovator Award
Also, building the Visa Analytics Platform through Digital Marketplace a framework which enables the developers to publish apps which clients can then subscribe to much like the Google Play Store. We primarily use Spring, Hibernate and Angular.
✦ Built a generic UI rendering framework on top of AngularJS that reduced the UI development and testing time by over 90%
✦ Our team started the project from scratch around 2 years ago and now it is the most funded project ( $20M+ ) in Visa Data Products and powers multiple marketplaces like Visa Analytics Platform, Visa Data Manager and Visa Client Insights.
