Senior AI Engineer · India

Senior AI Engineer at C5i. I design multi-agent assistants, retrieval, and document intelligence on Databricks and Azure, plus the fine-tuning, evaluation, and CI/CD behind them.

Experience

Senior AI Engineer · C5i

Jun 2026 – Present

Full-time · India

  • Architecting a multi-agent assistant on LangGraph (specialized agents for retrieval, reasoning, and task execution) that holds sub-800ms average response latency across concurrent multi-tenant sessions and cut end-to-end task time 22%.
  • Serve agents on Databricks Model Serving with Unity Catalog lineage and access control on every agent-facing source; Genie-based agents cut analyst query turnaround 30%.
  • Built governance in from day one (model versioning, prompt and response auditing, access policies) plus Azure DevOps CI/CD that cut release cycle time 20% and deployment failures 15%.

AI Engineer · Zyoin

Nov 2025 – May 2026

Contract · India

  • Designed and deployed an agentic RAG chatbot for enterprise knowledge, fed by Docling-based ingestion that turns unstructured documents into structured data.
  • Built an agentic synthetic-persona generator for financial survey datasets to improve downstream model robustness and segmentation analysis.
  • Ran the model lifecycle on Databricks, Azure, and MLflow: experiment tracking, versioning, and cloud deployment.

Machine Learning Engineer · Acranton

Jan 2022 – Aug 2025

Full-time · Davangere, India

  • Fine-tuned transformer NLP models from 78% to 89% sentiment accuracy while cutting inference latency 30%; custom classifiers raised pipeline accuracy 18% and cut processing time 25%.
  • Built computer-vision pipelines for image classification and object detection with CNN and GAN models, reaching 92% accuracy.
  • Designed a Gemini API–based extractor that turns unstructured healthcare documents into structured data in under 3 seconds, raising throughput 30%.

Generative AI Engineer · ResearchBrains

Feb 2021 – Dec 2021

Internship · Remote, India

  • Built AI services on FastAPI and AWS (EC2, S3, SageMaker) that cut generative-model inference response time from 5s to 2s.
  • Integrated modular AI microservices with GPT-powered APIs into enterprise workflows, cutting manual content-creation time 40%.
