   Software Engineer

   Quralyst · Backed by Indago Research

   • Architected scalable, multi-tiered full-stack backend systems for an AI-powered M&A deal intelligence platform, orchestrating distributed data flows across ingestion, processing, and enrichment layers spanning 5–10 external data sources.
   • Built end-to-end data pipelines in Python to ingest, normalize, and process structured and unstructured data from 5+ external sources, improving processing speed and reliability across test, integration, and production environments.
   • Built an API orchestration layer connecting OpenAI and Apollo APIs to automate AI-driven data enrichment, cutting manual research effort by 30–50%.
   • Developed intelligent filtering and transformation logic to extract high-quality deal insights from large datasets, surfacing higher-signal insights for investment decision-making.
   • Collaborated cross-functionally with product and business stakeholders, participated in code reviews, and maintained clean, well-documented, production-grade code.
   • Monitored and supported data-processing systems across test, integration, and production environments within two-week Agile/Scrum sprints (planning, standups, retrospectives), resolving defects to sustain reliable performance across 5–10 external pipelines.

   AI Engineer

   Freudia

   • Built an AI-powered chatbot delivering empathetic, contextually-aware conversations for users dealing with stress, anxiety, and everyday mental health challenges, using Large Language Models (LLMs).
   • Fine-tuned LLMs on domain-specific conversational data to improve response quality, tone, and emotional relevance.
   • Applied Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) to ground responses in curated resources, reducing hallucination and improving factual reliability of sensitive advice.
   • Leveraged NLP techniques for sentiment analysis and intent detection, enabling the chatbot to adapt tone and response style based on user emotional state.
