Experience

AI/ML Intern at FreshBus

05.2026 - 06.2026 (2m)

Internship / Hyderabad, India / On-site

Shipped a production CNN image-verification gate (MobileNetV3 + ArcFace): 1.0% false-reject rate, 0.995 AUC, 7 to 13 ms per image. It replaced manual review and blocks fraudulent verifications at intake.
Benchmarked a Vision Transformer against it and kept the smaller model: the accuracy was a wash, the latency budget was not.
Built a multi-agent dynamic-pricing service - Gemini 2.5 Flash for judgment, a deterministic validator for safety - repricing live trips inside hard fare guardrails. Backtesting cut anomalous over-discounting from 50 of 120 decisions to 2.
Engineered the demand model under it: Monte Carlo, a non-homogeneous Poisson process and Gaussian copulas, reconstructing sparse booking data through cohort clustering and temporal bucketing.

Volunteer Educator at Jagrati

08.2024 - ∞ (2y 3m)

Volunteer / Jabalpur, India / On-site

Teaching maths and science to underprivileged students in grades 6 to 10, five hours a week, sustained across four semesters.

Selected systems(5)

MessChain

06.2026 - ∞

A prepaid hostel-mess ledger on a private EVM chain, where a double charge is a contract revert rather than a reconciliation dispute.

6 / 27 contracts / REST routes on counted from the repository: six contracts under hardhat/contracts, 27 route handlers across five Express routers, against a paper register reconciled once a month, which anyone with access can edit

Solidity / Hyperledger Besu / QBFT / Hardhat / Ethers.js / IPFS / Node.js / Prisma / PostgreSQL / React Native

Team-Prik

06.2026 - ∞

An autonomous multi-agent pricing service that reprices live intercity bus trips, with a deterministic validator standing between the language model and every fare it touches.

+0.4 to +0.55% simulated revenue lift on offline backtest replaying real journeys under a linear-demand model, repricing only inventory unsold at the decision lead, against rule baseline +0.5 to +0.75%; bounded optimizer ceiling +0.95 to +1.16%

Python / Gemini 2.5 Flash / Multi-agent / LRU / PostgreSQL / ClickHouse / Next.js

Astrophage

04.2026 - ∞

A desktop AI assistant whose companions live on the taskbar and drive real OS operations, with every tool call gated by a signed intent token before it is allowed to run.

27 / 13 blocked patterns / MCP tools on counts rendered from the source arrays themselves, so the page cannot drift from the repository, against an ungated assistant executes every command the model proposes

JavaScript / Electron / MCP / Gemini 2.5 Flash / ArmorIQ SDK / MongoDB / Node.js

Booking Curve Reconstruction

05.2026 - 06.2026

A simulation engine that reconstructs a bus's full booking curve from a sparse ~30% aggregator sample, so a dynamic-pricing engine has a demand signal to price against instead of flying blind.

5.5 seats mean absolute error at departure on roughly 25% error on a representative 40-trip sample, averaged over five independent ~30% draws, against 92% of trips fall inside their predicted band; mean signed error is approximately zero

Python / NumPy / SciPy / NHPP / Gaussian copula / CTGAN / Monte Carlo

Education

B.Tech, Computer Science and Engineering

2024 - 2028

Indian Institute of Information Technology, Jabalpur / CGPA 8.4 / 10

Expected May 2028. The DSA and systems coursework is the part that keeps showing up in the project work: the memory layer in the pricing agent is a data-structures exercise that happened to ship.
