I engineer intelligent systems from model to production

About

AI Engineer working on the layer where LLMs meet real users — voice agents, RAG workflows, and agentic automation that has to behave when the demo is over.

I got here through backend: profiling PostgreSQL, fixing N+1 queries, stabilizing APIs. Then data, then product research, then applied GenAI. That path shapes how I build — retrieval design and prompt engineering on top, boring reliable engineering underneath.

The unglamorous parts are the ones I care about most: guardrails, fallbacks, evals, tracing, and knowing what every token costs.

    Gurugram

    AI Engineer

    Octify Technologies

    Joined as an AI engineering intern, converted to full-time in six months. Owned LLM systems end to end — voice agents, retrieval, and agentic automation.

    • Built voice-agent workflows for AI calling and sales coaching — prompt design, tool calling, schema-validated JSON outputs.
    • Designed RAG pipelines with embeddings, vector search, and retrieval filters grounded in business and product context.
    • Shipped agentic automation for lead generation, SEO monitoring, and WhatsApp/Twitter outreach — NestJS, async jobs, Redis state, retries, failure isolation.
    • Hardened LLM flows for 10k+ requests a day: prompt versioning, guardrails, fallbacks, tracing, cost and latency tracking.

    Product Research Intern

    Filo Edtech

    Turned scattered multi-channel user feedback into something the product team could actually act on.

    • Built an internal feedback automation tool to collect, parse, categorize, and summarize feedback — research cycle time down 32%.
    • Analyzed onboarding data, surfaced 3 high-friction points, helped lift retention by 5%.

    Get Now Solutions

    First production backend work — where the performance instincts come from.

    • Profiled PostgreSQL query paths in CRM APIs, fixed N+1 patterns, added indexes — p95 latency from ~800ms to under 200ms.
    • Root-caused recurring REST API failures, cutting the backend bug rate by 40%.

Kind words

Slack message from Sanjay: Lakshay, I've really liked the way you've been taking ownership of your work. You don't just finish tasks, you actually think through them. You're dependable, easy to work with, and you bring a calm, problem-solving mindset to the team. That makes a real difference.
