About

I'm a DevOps and AI Engineer with 2.5 years of hands-on experience bridging cloud infrastructure automation, CI/CD pipelines, container orchestration, and AI-driven architectures. My expertise lies in crafting scalable microservices, leveraging LangChain/LangGraph for agentic workflows, and deploying enterprise-grade AI platforms that deliver tangible business value. At ESDS Software Solution Limited and the Indian Air Force, I've led transformative projects that slashed manual efforts by up to 70%, boosted efficiency by 35%, and ensured zero unscheduled downtime through robust observability and compliance measures.

Research Paper Under Review - Small Language Models

2025

Submitted paper titled 'A Comparative Study of Small Language Models: Efficiency, Performance, and Resource Utilization across Diverse Hardware Architectures.' The research benchmarks Phi-3, Gemma-2, and Llama-3.2 across cloud GPUs, consumer GPUs, and CPU environments—analyzing inference latency, memory utilization, power consumption, and performance-per-dollar metrics. Additionally proposes enhancement techniques including knowledge distillation from larger LLMs, quantization-aware training, LoRA-based fine-tuning, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) integration, and speculative decoding to bridge the SLM-LLM performance gap while maintaining resource efficiency.
