I am an AI and full-stack engineer in Melbourne, currently reading for a Master of Data Science at the University of Melbourne, after a BS in Data Science and Applications from IIT Madras. Alongside my studies I build agentic AI systems and production web applications for clients in Australia and the United States.
Before Melbourne I spent a year as the founding engineer at KRISHAI, building evolvue.ai for Krish Naik, whose AI education network reaches over 1.5 million subscribers. I owned product, backend, frontend and infrastructure end to end, and prototypes that removed manual operations there helped double company revenue. That work is where I settled on the thing I care most about now: shipping fast and shipping reliably are not opposites, but you only get both if testing, data integrity and deployment are in place from the first commit.
My interests sit around LLM agents and retrieval systems, the engineering that keeps them honest (grounding, evaluation and human review) and the infrastructure underneath. In 2026 I was one of 70 participants selected from over 400 applicants for Anthropic’s APAC Claude Impact Lab in Melbourne.
I am currently available now: Open to part-time roles, internships and freelance briefs. I hold a Student Visa (Subclass 500) with work authorisation in Australia. The quickest way to reach me is email.
