hosts :: AWS · Azure · OCII build and ship production GenAI systems end to end — agentic LangGraph workflows, RAG pipelines, and LLM fine-tuning, plus the FastAPI / Redis / Docker infrastructure underneath them. I care about the parts most demos skip: guardrails, tracing, and failure handling — and I've taken several systems from an empty repo to a live URL solo.
Forward-deployed at heart: shipped GenAI systems to 24+ enterprise clients (IHCL, Dr. Reddy's, Bajaj Finserv, Spotify), owning on-site integration, dual-sided InfoSec approvals, demos, and onboarding.

- Microsoft — LLM-powered autonomous agents (FastAPI, LangChain, tool-use, memory, planning); real-time RLHF/RLAIF ingestion loops (+60% data freshness); containerized AI microservices with −40% integration defects.
- Yellow.AI — GenAI chatbots for 24+ enterprise clients; LoRA/QLoRA fine-tuning lifted accuracy 60% and CSAT 35% across 100M+ daily conversations; RLHF reward checkpoints cut harmful responses 28%; Node.js/Kafka backbone at 99.9% uptime.
- Cognizant — legacy Java monolith → Spring Boot microservices, +30% velocity, −40% query time, 80%+ coverage.

|---|---|---|
| role-collector | 13-node LangGraph job-sourcing agent — local Ollama (qwen3:8b), Langfuse tracing with PII redaction, hard-coded URL-allowlist guardrails, beat Google's CDP-layer bot detection via nodriver. 55 passing tests. | LangGraph Ollama Langfuse Pydantic |
| SimCricketX | Real-time probabilistic cricket simulation — 256+ users, 444+ matches in production; ~21K lines, 126 endpoints, 7-layer momentum engine; 120 deliveries resolved in <5s. repo ↗ | Python Flask WebSockets OCI |
| async-audio-pipeline | Queue-based async meeting intelligence — Splitter → Transcriber → Summarizer workers over Redis; 1-hour meetings in 7–11 min (vs 45–75 baseline); workers scale with zero API changes. | FastAPI Redis Whisper Gemini |
| AI-Driven-Resume-Builder | RAG + alignment — FAISS hybrid retrieval + cross-encoder re-ranking (+45% match scores); QLoRA at 4-bit (−60% GPU memory); Constitutional AI self-critique loops. | FAISS QLoRA RLHF HuggingFace |
| applyd | Multi-service job aggregation — Argon2id auth, three-signal expired-job state machine across 10+ ATS providers, per-ATS circuit breakers that fail closed, tamper-evident audit log. | FastAPI SQLite FTS5 |
