I'm a software engineer based in Bengaluru, working at Galleri5 (part of Collective Artists Network) where I build generative AI systems, backend infrastructure, and the tooling around them. I joined when the tech team was around 10 people, and as one of four engineers on the AI stack, I've had the chance to work across the full depth — from ML research and model training to distributed systems and production operations.
Most of my day-to-day revolves around agentic AI — autonomous multi-step workflows that decompose creative prompts into execution DAGs, select and orchestrate models across providers, and stream results in real time. On the infrastructure side, I've built the distributed job dispatch system, GPU fleet management, and the concurrency and crash recovery layers underneath it all. I also handle deployments across GCP, Azure, and AWS, and lead on-call rotation.
The pipelines I've built have powered actual shipped content — Mahabharat - Ek Dharmayudh streaming on JioHotstar, and the AI-generated teaser for Chiranjeevi Hanuman: The Eternal (8M+ on YouTube / 12M+ on Instagram, premiered on IMAX). Currently co-developing an AI asset platform with Microsoft.
Before generative AI, I worked on classical ML — NLP, clustering, vector search — powering trend-based product discovery for brands like Myntra and Ajio. On the R&D side, I build ComfyUI workflows, train LoRAs for character consistency and style transfer, and develop new generation pipelines from research through to production.
