Building intelligent systems at the intersection of knowledge graphs, AI/ML platforms, and distributed systems

Tech Lead at Amazon creating GenAI and knowledge graph systems that enable automated reasoning and decision-making at scale.

About

I'm a Senior Software Development Engineer at Amazon, where I serve as Tech Lead for event-driven architectures in AWS Fintech. My work focuses on designing and implementing Gen AI infrastructure, automating lifecycle management of Gen AI racks, and building developer toolkits that leverage Amazon Bedrock and open-source technologies to improve operational excellence. I've authored high-impact design documents for projects impacting financial statements by over $300M.

My expertise spans knowledge graph engineering, AI/ML platforms, and distributed systems. I've led the architecture and productionization of scalable Entity Resolution systems using Graph Metablocking, developed FHIR-compliant knowledge graphs for healthcare, and built semantic search capabilities that increased customer acquisition. I've managed engineering teams, delivered graph-powered applications to 30+ customers, and contributed to open-source graph database libraries.

Previously, I worked as Engineering Lead at Circulo Inc, Software Solution Engineer at TigerGraph, and AVP Data Engineer at Jefferies LLC, where I built scalable knowledge graph ETL pipelines and semantic data lakes. I hold a Master's degree in Computer Science from New York University (2018, GPA: 3.8/4) and a Bachelor's in Computer Engineering from LD College of Engineering, India (2016, GPA: 3.6/4). My technical interests include graph databases, distributed systems, machine learning infrastructure, and semantic technologies.
