   Specialize in building scalable, high-performance software solutions. My expertise spans Large Language Models (LLMs), Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), Model Context Protocol (MCP), Agentic AI, and cloud-native applications. I have hands-on experience deploying LLMs (e.g, GPT, BERT, T5) for complex NLP tasks such as sentiment analysis, summarization, entity extraction, and question answering. I’m skilled in using LangChain for integrating external data and leveraging MCP and Agentic AI to enhance decision-making and automate workflows. I also have a strong background in cloud-native technologies, with expertise in Azure, AWS, Docker, and Kubernetes to design, deploy, and scale cloud applications. Additionally, I’ve worked with Apache Spark, Kafka, and Cassandra for real-time data processing and distributed systems, and I design microservices using Java Spring Boot, GoLang, and Python with integrated SQL/NoSQL databases.I excel in performance engineering, optimizing systems for low-latency and high scalability. I’ve led the development of real-time streaming applications, AI/ML solutions using LLMs and RAG models, and delivered cloud-native solutions leveraging Azure PaaS services like Event Hubs, Data Lake, and Azure Functions. Throughout my career, I’ve mentored teams, led client engagements, and successfully managed complex POCs. My work is focused on delivering intelligent, adaptive solutions that solve real-world problems and drive business value. Let’s connect to discuss AI-driven innovations, cloud architectures, and scalable software solutions!
