Hi there! I'm Nitin, a software engineer with a passion for AI/ML, computer vision, and automotive software.

I’ve spent some time at Bosch developing real-time ADAS applications and optimizing perception pipelines, and I'm now deep into research at NC State—exploring information bottlenecks in deep learning and contributing to open-source projects like SGLang. I've also led projects in robotic navigation using Visual SLAM and ROS, fueling my interest in autonomous systems. Lately, I've been diving into AI agents and exploring innovative applications across different domains.

I'm eager to collaborate on challenging projects in robotics, intelligent systems, or any cutting-edge tech. If you're working on something exciting in these areas, let's connect!

I am a backend expert, having built and maintained highly available systems for several companies over the last 10 years, in addition to over 20 total years of software development experience. I learn new things extremely quickly.

You will like working with me because I:

  * hold your goals as my priorities
  * communicate verbosely yet synthesize well
  * my rates are reasonable in exchange for the value I deliver
  * I guarantee I will get the job done

* built the streaming data architecture for realtime game player tracking information (all games, 50ms SLA) and game stats for one of the top 3 US sports leagues (can’t name drop!) using Redpanda/Kafka on Azure+Terraform, and implemented its developer portal using Gravitee to provide first class streaming API support and monetization. Also built, deployed and maintained their ask-a-question-get-a-true-answer AI bot to expose 20+ years of stats to natural language fan questions!

* Implemented a vector DB for one of the leading AI image hallucination platforms (millions of users) to provide an image similarity service.

* replatformed dozens of jobs to AWS Lambda for a startup hedge fund, vastly improving QoS and maintenance cost. Line 1 to platform-in-prod time 3 months.

* built a ~50 node, AWS, Dockerized, Terraform-deployed distributed system to provide realtime, transformed trade data from crypto exchanges to a Kafka pipeline and data lake (fodder for an analytics platform). Met 5000msec SLA across arbitrarily many exchanges and ticker symbols. Blue-green deployment for complete CICD safety. Cloudwatch metrics proved SLA was met and provided general system oversight.

* built a framework to collapse dozens of singleton ETL programs into one config-driven, simple C# application performing the same functionality at ~80% reduction in maintenance cost year over year.

I'm a freelance consultant specializing in document processing.

Currently building an app that extracts key information from PDFs and automatically highlights the source text for each extracted data point, allowing users to easily verify the accuracy of the extracted information.

I can help with:

  - LLMs, RAG, Structured Extraction
  - Data extraction from PDF documents
  - OCR projects
  - Table detection/recognition
  - Document classification
  - Document splitting
  - PDF workflow automation
