Experience

Gen AI Architect · SBER Bank India

Aug 2025 – Present — Bengaluru, IN

  • Led the team building GigaOCR, a multimodal data extraction system (Hugging Face Transformers, olmOCR, vLLM, Qwen3-VL) for scanned documents, images, and handwritten invoices.
  • Contributed to GigaChat enterprise LLM solutions — role-based chatbots for HR, IT, Treasury, Methodology, Credit, Investment, and Sales.
  • Implemented multi-turn dialogue context modeling, state tracking, and a voice-agent framework with speech-to-text interaction.

Senior AI Engineer · Ernst & Young LLP

Apr 2024 – Jul 2025 — Bengaluru, IN

  • Built a multimodal AI compliance platform for a global chemicals client, analyzing product regulations across 50+ countries using CLIP, FAISS, Neo4j knowledge graphs, and GPT-4.
  • Ran supervised fine-tuning and alignment of domain-specific LLMs; implemented agentic workflows with memory, tool-calling, human-feedback loops, and recovery mechanisms.
  • Achieved roughly 70x faster compliance processing versus the manual baseline.

Senior Data Scientist · Société Générale

May 2022 – Mar 2024 — Bengaluru, IN

  • Built an AI-driven onboarding and compliance verification system using Tesseract OCR and LLMs for document parsing, risk profiling, and KYC summarization, deployed on AWS.
  • Developed a production predictive model for justifying Net Asset Value (NAV) in investment management using decision trees, RabbitMQ, PostgreSQL, Airflow, Docker, and Kubernetes.

Applied Machine Learning Engineer · TCS Research

Feb 2019 – Apr 2022 — Bengaluru, IN

  • Built an NLP-based query chatbot (Django) and a next-word-prediction module using an LSTM sequential model (Keras/TensorFlow/PyTorch).
  • Handled large-scale ML training and prediction on Hadoop/Spark distributed systems, with A/B testing and MLOps for lifecycle management.

Applied Machine Learning Engineer · GateOverflow

May 2018 – Jan 2019 — Trivandrum, IN

  • Ran semantic analysis on user comments with Python and NLTK to extract sentiment, intent, and key themes for customer feedback insights.
