Demonstrated measurable impact (≈40% faster document lookup, +8–10% retrieval precision) and strong MLOps rigor via Airflow orchestration, CI/CD, and monitoring for drift and failures.”

“Robotics software intern who worked on a customized ROS1-based middleware, building ROS node orchestration and a ROS topic monitoring system. Improved intra-machine ROS topic performance by using shared memory and circular buffers instead of socket-based IPC, and integrated nightly Jenkins CI with Groovy/Python to run tests and produce code coverage reports.”

“Built a production GenAI-powered analytics assistant to reduce reliance on data analysts by enabling natural-language Q&A over Databricks/Power BI dashboards, backed by vector search (Pinecone/Milvus) and a Neo4j knowledge graph, including multimodal support via OpenAI Vision.
