Kamish Upadhyay
Production AI for banks and enterprises.
9 years designing LLM, RAG, voice and agentic AI systems, from the first architecture sketch to monitored production. Based in Bengaluru, India. Open to relocation.
Results that reached production.
Not prototypes. Systems people rely on every day.
Selected work.
From money-mule networks to voice banking.
Real-time fraud detection
Catching money-mule networks in milliseconds, with reasons an investigator can check.
RAG knowledge assistant
An AI assistant that answers 500+ employees in seconds, and knows when to hand off.
Banking voice agent
A production speech agent: listen, understand, answer, in under two seconds.
Agentic analytics platform
Ask the business a question in plain English. Get the SQL, the numbers and the chart.
LLM-driven KYC onboarding
From 3–5 days to under 24 hours, with customer data never leaving the bank.

What I bring.
End-to-end ownership, from client requirement to deployment, monitoring and enhancement.
LLMs & fine-tuning
SFT, PEFT, LoRA and QLoRA; prompt and context engineering; response and inference optimisation with vLLM.
Agentic AI & MCP
LangGraph and tool-calling orchestration, investigation agents, and MCP-based tool integration.
RAG & knowledge systems
Retrieval-augmented assistants grounded in enterprise content, with a clear hand-off to people.
Voice AI
Production STT → LLM → TTS pipelines with guardrails, latency budgets and cost per turn.
Explainable ML
XGBoost, graph analytics and SHAP: models that risk and compliance teams can audit.
MLOps & LLMOps
CI quality gates, Airflow, Docker, Kubernetes, DVC and on-premise CI/CD for regulated data.
Nine years. Five teams.
Research lab to global bank, always close to production.
