I graduated in Computer Science from Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham in June 2026. I have built six systems end to end, quantized the models so they run on modest hardware, and written four of them up as papers accepted at IEEE conferences.
Currently exploring: AI Agents.
Who I am
I am a Computer Science graduate from Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham, Amritapuri, who likes building AI systems that actually ship. My work sits at the intersection of machine learning and backend engineering - from screening chest CT scans on edge devices, to ranking resumes with LLMs, to a tutoring system that notices how a learner feels.
I care about systems that run on modest hardware, that explain themselves, and that are honest about what they can do. Each of my major projects was built end to end - model, backend, interface - and four were written up as papers accepted at IEEE conferences.
Away from code, I design posters for clients and enjoy cricket, Formula 1, and films that make you think.

Words
“Rahul took the backend on HealthATM and stayed with it until it worked. When the model kept failing on the awkward cases, he rewrote the pipeline instead of working around it. He does what he says he will do.”
“He breaks a big pipeline into parts, builds them one at a time, then wires them together without fuss. Our demo ran on the first attempt, which almost never happens.”
“Rahul asks careful questions and then comes back with something built. He stayed steady through the review cycles, which is not easy at this stage.”
“Consistent, and willing to take on the parts of a project nobody volunteers for. His work on the implementation side was dependable throughout.”
