Building AI-Powered
Products That Ship.

CS (AI & ML) student at VJIT Hyderabad — ex AI/LLM Intern at VISWAM.AI. I build end-to-end systems: from LLM pipelines to production deployments.

A builder at heart,
an engineer by training.

The Spark

It started with curiosity — not about how software works, but about what it can do. Growing up in Kurnool and later Hyderabad, I was drawn to the question of how machines learn from data and make decisions.

Going Deeper

At VJIT Hyderabad, pursuing CS with an AI & ML specialization, I didn't just study machine learning — I shipped it. From building IoT systems to contributing to large-scale Telugu LLM pipelines at VISWAM.AI, I learned that real engineering is about finishing, not theorizing.

Building Products

My Cold Email Agent project taught me the full stack of AI product development: prompt engineering, backend architecture, API design, and cloud deployment. I'm not just training models — I'm building things people can actually use.

What's Next

I want to be at the intersection of product thinking and AI engineering — at a startup where moving fast matters. I bring 9.05 CGPA, real internship experience at a national AI initiative, and the bias to ship.

“I believe the best engineers aren't defined by their algorithm knowledge — they're defined by what they ship and how fast they learn from it.”
