AI/ML Engineer. Building agentic AI systems, LLM-integrated backends, and RAG pipelines.

Summary

Software engineer specializing in agentic AI systems, LLM-integrated backends, and production Node.js/TypeScript services. Builds autonomous agents with Gemini and Claude (tool use, MCP-style integrations, RAG), plus ML automation and AWS-integrated systems. Open to AI Engineer, ML Engineer, and Software Engineering internships in 2027. F-1 OPT eligible.

Experience

Software Developer, Rutgers University, New BrunswickJan 2026 - Present
  • Built an agentic AI chatbot from scratch (Node.js, TypeScript, Express, React), integrating LLM APIs with tool use and retrieval to deliver context-aware academic content across departments.
  • Designed a modular LLM evaluation framework supporting 4+ models with structured logging, latency tracking, and token-usage metrics for benchmarking RAG quality and instruction-following.
  • Implemented RAG to ground responses in structured academic content, enabling automated MCQ, programming, and essay-question generation mapped to learning objectives.
Member of Technical Staff 2, CohesityJul 2022 - Jul 2025
  • Engineered a production Auto-Triage system (Python and ML) classifying defects across Product, Automation, and Environment, cutting debugging turnaround by 37%.
  • Built backend workflows processing 150k+ log events with NLP-based pattern detection for faster root-cause analysis across distributed systems.
  • Owned a full Jenkins CI/CD pipeline and a Grafana monitoring dashboard, reducing manual QA effort by 20%.
Data Science Intern, Alpha AIJun 2021 - Jul 2021
  • Built Facial Expression and Speech Emotion Recognition pipelines (Keras, 27k 48x48 grayscale images).
  • Used OpenCV for face detection and emotion prediction, reaching ~73% accuracy.

Projects

A Socratic thinking companion for children that asks one guiding question at a time, enforces tool safety in code, and records each child's learning journey in a private git-backed growth journal.

Patchworkrepo ↗
GitHub App that turns a bug report into a targeted regression-test pull request. It reads the repository's existing test patterns, uses Gemini 2.5 Pro to write a test that fails before the fix and passes after it, then creates the branch, commit, and PR. Built solo at the Zero to Agent hackathon.
