AI & Full-Stack Engineer — i build things, break things, fix things.

// about

Hello

I'm a Master's student in Artificial Intelligence at Monash, after a year and a half at Tata Consultancy Services building core banking systems for HDFC Bank.

I move between full-stack engineering and applied ML — lately that means shipping AI products like MODO and Kisan Copilot, and poking inside transformers to see how they actually work. I learn fastest by building things, breaking them, and figuring out exactly why. Outside of code I write music and take photos.

Open to opportunities in AI/ML and full-stack engineering.

Things I've built

Flashcards that actually stick.

  • Spaced-repetition study app that schedules every review with the SM-2 algorithm — the maths behind Anki — so cards come back right before you'd forget them.
  • 240+ cards across Python for AI, Database Systems, Computer Architecture and Maths, in 10 languages.
  • XP, streaks and a leaderboard to make revision feel like a game, plus a guest mode to try it without signing up.

GPT-2 Pronoun Circuitsource ↗

2026

Finding the five heads that decide 'he' or 'she'.

  • Mechanistic-interpretability study of how GPT-2 Small resolves pronouns after 'because' clauses, using activation patching, head ablation and attention visualisation.
  • Traced the behaviour to a sparse 5-head circuit across layers 4–9 — just 3.5% of the model's heads.
  • Ablating those heads flips the model's preference to the wrong pronoun (logit diff +0.107 → −0.038); head L7H3 turns out to track the grammatical subject and verb.

A farming advisor that speaks your language.

  • Voice-first crop-advisory copilot for Indian farmers, built for the Snowflake CoCo CLI Hackathon 2026.
  • Ask in Telugu, Hindi or English — it works out your district and crop, then answers with live market prices, weather and agronomy reasoned inside Snowflake.
  • Guardrails stop it inventing prices it doesn't have.

Your life is a journey. Tabi is where it lives.

  • A personal digital world: photos, notes, places and memories as real objects, connected to each other.
  • Show them as a canvas of movable widgets, or on a 3D globe of where each memory happened.
  • Every user gets a permanent home at tabi.app/<username>.

Smart Mathematics Tutorsource ↗

2023

Draw a shape, get the formula.

  • CNN that classifies hand-drawn shapes with ~99% precision.
  • Flask app that detects the shape and shows its formulas, area and perimeter in real time.
  • Image preprocessing and data augmentation to make the model robust to messy drawings.

Blockchain Secure Storage

2023

File sharing secured by a blockchain.

  • AES encryption with SHA-512 hashing, plus a comparative analysis of MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256 and SHA-512.
  • Smart contracts for secondary verification across a 4-stage pipeline: data owner, data user, private chain, public chain.

Where I've worked

Systems Engineer · Tata Consultancy Services

Sep 2024 – Feb 2026
  • Developed and maintained Java Spring Boot REST APIs for HDFC Bank's core banking modules, supporting high-volume financial transactions in the BFSI domain.
  • Built and executed automated test suites (unit, integration, regression) with Selenium, reducing manual QA effort and improving release confidence.
  • Performed root cause analysis on production defects across 3+ banking modules and contributed to CI/CD pipelines for consistent deployments.
  • Delivered features and bug fixes in an agile CRM team of 10+ for critical banking systems under tight deadlines.

AI Developer Intern · Google Developers · SmartInternz

Jun 2023 – Jul 2023
  • Developed an interactive GUI application to enhance mathematics learning using AI-based shape recognition.
  • Implemented TensorFlow and Keras models to detect hand-drawn shapes and generate the relevant formulas.
  • Built and deployed the application with Flask, NumPy and Matplotlib, working in Jupyter, IBM Watson Studio and Anaconda.

Music & photos

I write and release music — the latest single is Airplane Mode (8 Oct 2026). I also shoot photos as @enigma_view. Both live on my studio site.
