Experience
Research Aide
ESC Lab, University at Buffalo
- –Designing and building the BIRA (Buffalo Innovation & Research Academy) summer camp website, a multi-page React app with dedicated sub-sites for individual programs, session details, and enrollment flows.
- –Working on an AI-powered food intake detection system that watches parent-child meal videos and detects eating events built the full pipeline from preprocessing through model training and annotated video output.
Research Assistant (Volunteer)
University at Buffalo
- –Evaluated security compliance of LLM-generated code (LLaMA 3.1 and GPT) against 12 CWEs across 350+ code samples through manual code review.
- –Benchmarked each model's adherence to Secure Coding Practices and compared CWE violation patterns to identify recurring security weaknesses in LLM-generated code.
Associate Engineer
Brillio · CTO Team
- –Spent most of my time here building an AI agent that automatically converted legacy enterprise code (TIBCO BusinessWorks) into modern .NET microservices, got it to 70% accuracy which saved a lot of manual rewriting effort.
- –Built a natural language interface over a 100K-row ServiceNow incident database using Claude via AWS Bedrock so non-technical teams could ask questions in plain English instead of writing SQL.
- –Improved the internal developer portal so new engineers could spin up cloud deployments in 15 minutes instead of 40 minutes.
Project Intern
Hindustan Aeronautics Limited
- –Built the data management system for a UAV project in C++, handled communication between the main computer and the drone's sensors, reducing packet loss by 15%.
- –Designed a real-time GUI for sensor monitoring so engineers could track system status without manually reviewing logs.
Projects
Food Intake Detection Pipeline
ongoingAn AI system that watches meal videos of parents and kids and detects food intake events. Finetuned R3D-18 Video ResNet on 135 videos (709K labeled frames) hitting 73.1% validation accuracy. Integrated YOLO to crop the child region before inference, which improved eating detection confidence 6x.
LookThePart
activeA fashion-entertainment iOS + web platform where users tag outfits to TV shows and movies. I handle the entire backend AWS infrastructure, batch content uploads, search with tag disambiguation, and shipped the iOS app via TestFlight.
KnowHive
↗ githubInternal knowledge platform that uses GPT-2 to suggest solutions when someone logs an incident. Built the backend APIs and integrated the model reduced average resolution time by 25%.
Mobile app built for Alzheimer's patients that records conversations, identifies who's speaking, and narrates summaries back to the user. Used FaceNet for face recognition and Pyannote for speaker diarization got 85% speaker ID accuracy. This became my IEEE paper.
Visual Assistant System
Real-time visual aid using YOLOv3 to detect and classify objects in live video feeds for visually impaired users — 92% detection accuracy.
Publication
A Novel Approach to Record and Narrate the Summary of Conversation for Alzheimer Patient
Built an app that helps Alzheimer's patients keep track of who they've spoken to and what was said. It records conversations, identifies speakers using facial recognition and audio diarization, then narrates a summary back to the patient. Published at ICONAT 2023.
