experience

profile

ai engineer

audria | noida, india
jun 2025 - aug 2025

• designed and deployed an on-device ai agent for ios without external api dependencies, enabling orchestration across 20+ mcp servers and advanced tool-calling capabilities.
• optimised small language model (slm) inference on iphone hardware by leveraging apple's neural engine (ane), achieving a 30% speed improvement and reducing power consumption.
• built a custom automatic speech recognition (asr) pipeline tailored for ios, integrating voice activity detection (vad), speaker identification, diarization, and real-time speech-to-text (stt).

stack: swift, python, slms, stt, vad, diarization, mcp servers, ane, coredata, coreml.

ai/ml intern

imagined studios | remote
dec 2024 - apr 2025

• built leadgen, a centralized sales automation engine leveraging selenium and llm-based information extraction to convert unstructured web data into qualified leads, reducing lead qualification time by 70%.
• developed faq-ai, a no-code platform using flask that enabled clients to easily build rag-based ai chatbots with integrated speech-to-text (stt) and text-to-speech (tts) capabilities.

stack: python, flask, docker, cursor, llms, mongodb, chromadb, jwt refresh tokens, selenium, digitalocean, render, api testing and deployment.

dec 2023 - may 2025 | guide: dr. jaspreet kaur dhanjal

• conducted benchmarking of gpt-4o and domain-specific llms (e.g., biomistral, deepseek) on biomedical qa, using a corpus of 980 curated research papers and evaluation metrics including rouge-l, bleu, and meteor to ensure factual consistency and reliability.

ug researcher

etidm lab, indraprastha institute of information technology, delhi
aug 2023 - dec 2023 | guide: dr. kalpana shankwar

• developed a self-learning augmented reality (ar) system for precise pcb soldering by integrating computer vision techniques with unity and the vuforia engine, supporting real-time tracking and interactive tutorials.

education

academics

bachelors of technology in electronics and communication

indraprastha institute of information technology, delhi
aug, 2021 - july, 2025

my university offers the flexibility to choose courses from various disciplines, and i've primarily delved into interdisciplinary work with a strong emphasis on cs and ai fundamentals. few remarkable courses:

cs: • human-computer interaction (hci) • data structures and algorithms (dsa) • computer organisation (co) • advanced programming (ap) • machine learning (ml) • neuroscience of decision-making (ndm) • information retrieval (ir) • theories of deep learning (tdl) • computer vision (cv) • deep learning (dl)

maths: • linear algebra (m-i) • probability and statistics (m-ii) • multivariate calculus (m-iii) • differential equations (m-iv).

projects

work

loan.ly: ai lead generator for banks | demo
python, twilio, flask | vs code
• developed an automated cold-calling system that conducts intelligent loan and credit card application interviews, evaluates responses in real-time, and streamlines customer acquisition.

notegen: customized notes generator | demo
python, langchain, streamlit, conda, chromadb | vs code
• developed an ai-driven application allowing users to define topics and integrate custom knowledge bases for tailored notes generation. designed a flexible system architecture that supports markdown-formatted outputs, dynamic table of contents, and seamless integration of user-provided data pool.

prosearchai | demo
python, langchain, streamlit, conda, chromadb, gemini | vs code
• developed a semantic-based recommendation system that captures user intent by analyzing conversational context and product metadata, improving relevance beyond traditional keyword matches.

spambot: daily activity summarizer
python, streamlit, conda, gemini-pro | vs code
• spambot simplifies your life by summarizing daily activities from a transcript.txt file, providing both question-answering (qa) and summarization capabilities.

hindi translation - fre:ac (open source)
xml | vscode | guide: robert kausch
• added and tested hindi language support built from source.

...many more.
