About Me
I'm an AI and Software Engineer with 3+ years of experience building and deploying LLM-powered agent systems, RAG pipelines, and production AI infrastructure. Proficient in LangGraph, LangChain, and agentic workflow orchestration with hands-on experience integrating AI into enterprise business workflows via REST APIs.
My journey started with computer vision — building real-time object detection, autonomous navigation, and edge-deployed models on Jetson hardware. I then moved into generative AI, designing stateful multi-agent systems with tool calling, function orchestration, and persistent conversation memory.
Most recently, I've been building LLM-powered enterprise systems at Denali Advanced Integration — designing end-to-end agentic pipelines for order validation, PO/SO generation, and inventory tracking. I also co-founded MendIt, where I architected and shipped a full-stack platform as the sole engineer across 12 modules.
Projects
Ekam CLI - VLM/LLM Testing Tool
Production-grade CLI unifying HuggingFace, Ollama, LlamaCPP, and vLLM for AI model testing, benchmarking, quantization, and fine-tuning. Used at Denali — reduced inference latency by 40-60% and scaled to 5,000+ stations.

What I'm Building
Ventures and products currently in development
MendIt - On-Demand Repair Marketplace
An end-to-end platform connecting customers with nearby repair shops for electronics repairs. Built as sole engineer across 12 modules — scalable NestJS backend, PostgreSQL with PostGIS for geolocation, Redis caching, WebSocket/SSE real-time pipelines, Stripe integration, and 15+ RESTful API endpoints.
SymLink - Self-Service Utility Platform
An infrastructure platform enabling self-service utility dispensing across India — water, EV charging, and fuel — through a unified consumer app and smart IoT hardware ecosystem.
