Current Role: Tata Elxsi
Software Engineer | December 2023 - Present
Building expertise in Python programming, AI/ML, and modern software development practices with hands-on projects and continuous upskilling.
1
Software Development Foundations
Hands-on with SDLC, Python Programming, Git, Jira, Unit & Integration Testing in real-world projects and collaborative workflows.
2
Generative AI Bootcamp
Worked with LLMs, RAG, LangChain, LlamaIndex, vector databases (Chroma, Postgres), and AI coding assistants. Built Python-based AI applications using FastAPI.
3
Automated Report Generation Tool
Developed a Python automation tool to replace a time-consuming, manual daily sales report. The project followed SDLC best practices, using Jira for task management , Git for version control , and unit/integration testing to ensure quality, ultimately saving over 30 hours of manual work per month.
4
Client Project - Mahindra & Mahindra: Python-Automated Vehicle Diagnostics
Developed a Python workflow module for Mahindra & Mahindra's MIDA diagnostics tool. The script used Pandas to process raw vehicle DTC logs , enrich them with an internal database , and automatically email formatted Excel reports to specialist engineering teams. This automated a manual fault reporting process , reduced vehicle repair times, and provided a clean dataset for data science analysis.
