About Me
I am an AI Engineer with 4 years of experience across machine learning, generative AI, data science, and Python backend development, currently working as an Applied AI Engineer at General Electric (GE). I hold an MS in Computer Science from the University of Illinois Springfield and a Bachelor's in Computer Engineering from Savitribai Phule Pune University.
I build AI services, predictive and anomaly-detection models, RAG applications, LangGraph agentic workflows, and production ML pipelines covering data preparation, deployment, monitoring and retraining. I enjoy connecting AI models with real backend systems and solving practical business problems.

Feb 2026 - Present | Bloomington, IL
Building Python AI services, RAG and LangGraph workflows, and predictive/anomaly-detection models on equipment health data (+16% early issue detection, 23% faster inference).
May 2025 - Dec 2025 | Remote, USA
Built classification and anomaly-detection models separating legitimate traffic from bots and suspicious activity (+17% detection accuracy); analyzed AI/LLM crawler traffic trends.
Jun 2022 - Jul 2024 | Pune, India
Developed Python backend services and REST APIs for enterprise apps during cloud migration (18% faster responses, 25% faster processing via SQL tuning).
Python pipeline ingesting sensor and operational data with time-series alignment and rolling, rate-of-change and threshold features. Predictive and anomaly-detection models trained on chronological splits to avoid leakage, improving early issue detection by 16%.
RAG pipeline over engineering documents: text extraction and cleaning, overlapping chunking, embeddings, vector index with metadata, similarity search, and response validation against source context to limit unsupported answers.
Reproducible training pipeline with MLflow tracking and model registry, Dockerized inference and CI/CD. Production monitoring with drift detection against the training baseline, threshold-triggered retraining, and promotion only after offline validation.
