About Kaushik Golithdka

Innovative Full-Stack AI Engineer with 6.5+ years of experience (4.5+ years full-time, 2+ years internships) driving groundbreaking AI solutions that redefine developer productivity. Specializing in Agentic AI systems, LLM fine-tuning, multi-agent orchestration, and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), I design and implement AI systems that compress complex multi-step workflows from hours to minutes, automate repetitive tasks, and create measurable business impact at scale.I thrive at the intersection of AI research and applied engineering, rapidly transforming experimental concepts like agentic subagents, developer debugging agents, and AI-driven code orchestration into production-ready solutions. Reporting directly to the Head of Architect, VP, and CTO, my work has immediate visibility and strategic impact on Autodesk’s AI vision.Core Competencies:* Agentic AI & Multi-Agent Orchestration (main agent → subagents → MCPs)* Full-Stack AI Engineering: Backend orchestration + Frontend chatbot systems* LLM Fine-Tuning & Domain Adaptation* Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) with embedding optimization* AI Workflow Automation & Developer Productivity Tools* Scalable Backend & Microservices (Python, Spring Boot, Docker, Azure)Highlights & Impact:* Built MCP orchestrator with main/subagent architecture, enabling parallel execution of tasks and reducing complex workflows by ~70–100x, dramatically improving developer productivity.* Developed subagents that autonomously code, test, validate, and review features 24x7, cutting development cycles by ~50–80%.* Created a Developer Debugging Agent that monitors coding, staging, and production deployments, reducing runtime errors and preventing system failures by ~60–80%.* Built AI-powered PR review agents that analyze full context and provide high-accuracy recommendations, accelerating code review turnaround by ~5–10x.* Applied latest LLM techniques to optimize AI decision-making and task automation pipelines, improving overall AI reliability and efficiency.* Delivered high-visibility AI features at 1–2 week cycles, ensuring rapid prototyping, iteration, and deployment across Autodesk.I’m passionate about building AI systems that empower developers, accelerate decision-making, and create measurable business impact, combining research-grade innovation with production-ready engineering.
