About me
Staff Software Engineer | 14+ Years Experience | Architecting Trustworthy Agentic AI @ Intuit
I am a seasoned Staff Software Engineer with over 14 years of experience in designing, automating, and maintaining highly available systems across cloud-native and hybrid environments.
Currently at Intuit, I am architecting Agentic AI solutions focused on resolving complex user issues at scale. My mission is to bridge the gap between Generative AI capabilities and production-grade reliability by:
• Establishing AI Trust: Defining rigorous evaluation frameworks and safety metrics for accurate agentic responses.
• Real-time Observability: Engineering automated strategies to validate AI performance against live success metrics.
• High-Scale Knowledge Engineering: Architecting scalable ingestion pipelines for high-precision, secure knowledge utilization.
Core Expertise:
• GenAI & Distributed Systems: RAG-based apps, Knowledge Graphs, MCP servers, Microservices (Python, FastAPI, Docker, K8s).
• Reliability & Automation: CI/CD, operational runbooks, and proactive observability (Splunk, Grafana).
• Infrastructure: Extensive experience in AWS/Azure and high-scale migrations from my previous roles at Visa and TCS.
I am a hands-on leader with experience managing global teams of 50+ and a deep passion for building resilient SaaS applications and mentoring the next generation of engineers.
