  • Built a pipeline to extract trending stories from unstructured data by clustering embedding vectors and generating summaries using LLMs, with Guardrails validation streamed through Kafka into Spring Boot.
  • Reduced latency in cartoon image detection by 75% using async inference and batch aggregation in FastAPI with Triton inference server.
  • Implemented similarity search using Qdrant to power natural language-driven universal search across the platform, replacing a legacy Elasticsearch solution.
  • Engineered a vector database-powered module for semantic deduplication and content tagging — reduced duplicate content by ~20% with an average latency of 400ms.
  • Benchmarked and provisioned a Qdrant vector store housing 20M+ points with multi-embedding support for high-throughput semantic workloads.
  • Strengthened platform observability using OpenTelemetry and Uptrace; enforced code quality standards via dependency injection, linters, formatters, and pre-commit hooks.

  • Built event-driven pipelines using Apache Beam and Google Pub/Sub to process petabyte-scale logs and operational metrics; modeled data in Cloud Spanner and surfaced insights via BigQuery and Looker Studio.
  • Contributed to FreeRTOS-based firmware for smartwatches on nRF52832, including real-time accelerometer signal processing and custom BLE GATT services for health data synchronisation.
  • Developed CI/CD pipelines to automate testing, linting, and code quality enforcement across engineering teams.
