Work Experience
Lead Software Engineer
NBCUniversal · Orlando, FL
Nov 2025 — Present
- Independently designed and built a full-stack estimating and takeoff platform (Python backend, React/TypeScript frontend): document-ingestion pipeline, OCR, spatial registration, and a geometry-aware computation engine with AI-assisted extraction; cut takeoff time from 6 hours to 30 minutes, backed by approximately 900 automated tests
- Led software delivery across Universal Creative and UDX, partnering with stakeholders across 6 business functions to gather requirements and author PRDs, shipping 10 products from concept into production
- Architected 8+ production systems spanning estimating, legal, engineering, safety, finance, and operations — designing shared patterns for service routing, validation, access control, and human-in-the-loop approval
- Led development of a centralized contract lifecycle platform, building ETL and a unified search layer over 10,000+ documents from SharePoint, databases, and enterprise repositories; reduced first-draft contract generation from approximately 2 weeks to under 48 hours
- Built retrieval and evaluation infrastructure over 5,000+ pages of legal documents with semantic search, automated citation validation, and deterministic checks; achieved full citation coverage at an approximately 2% review-error rate
- Delivered a cost-intelligence platform over historical cost data with structured retrieval, query routing, provenance tracking, and a conversational UI; reduced cost-research time 95%
AI Engineer
FOX Sports · Redmond, WA (Remote)
Aug 2024 — Nov 2025
- Decreased issue resolution time 35% by building an event-driven monitoring service (AWS Bedrock, Lambda, Slack API) for ML pipelines, surfacing drift alerts, exceptions, and health insights in real time
- Reduced ad-hoc reporting effort 40% by building a natural-language-to-SQL assistant (FAISS, Bedrock) serving producers at p95 approximately 1.3s latency
- Built an automated evaluation and regression harness (synthetic queries, oracle sets, precision@k) integrated into the iteration workflow; improved top-5 retrieval by 12 percentage points
- Cut per-request serving cost 28% without quality loss via response caching and lightweight request routing on Databricks
- Streamlined operations on 2M+ digital assets by automating metadata extraction and ETL (BigQuery, Spark, Cloud Functions); features powered engagement forecasting (LSTM, transformers) that lifted user retention 25%
Earlier Work
Software Engineer
Sakar Robotics · Pune, India
Jun 2019 — Jun 2022
- Developed reusable computer-vision and 3D-processing modules using OpenCV, Open3D, stereo depth, ICP, and multi-camera calibration; improved robotic pick success 18% and reduced pose error 22%
- Implemented TSDF mapping and 6-DoF tracking services, lowering re-localization time during occlusions by 35%
- Developed reinforcement-learning components for robotic manipulation using DDPG + HER, improving task precision by 30%
