0 - Software Engg

1 - Thinkpad

2 - Minimum 3 years. anything above that is bonus. (My 2015 MBP is still running fine)

I keep checking on profile if there is any activity. Other than that I haven't used SO for long time. It does not even come up in the google search results. Taking to LLMs like gemini, chatgpt etc does solve the technical problems.

Agree. I used to enjoy the nerd or technical articles on how stuff works, why it is optimized for speed, why it is not secure etc...more on technical stuff and the startup world ecosystem. Now a days I only see breaking news type of articles which I can easily find in any other websites.

Remote: Yes

Willing to relocate: No

About: I am a Generative AI Engineer who also happens to be pretty handy across the full stack. Most of my recent work has been building RAG pipelines, AI agents, and natural language search — using LangChain, LangGraph, and vector databases like Pinecone and ChromaDB — with OpenAI, Anthropic, and Gemini APIs under the hood. I care deeply about shipping GenAI features that hold up beyond the demo stage.

Beyond GenAI, I am working on the full stack — React/TypeScript on the frontend, Node.js or ASP.NET Core APIs on the backend, and AWS/Azure for infra. I like owning things end-to-end and building software that's simple and reliable.

Technologies:

  • Generative AI: LLMs, LangChain, LangGraph, Agentic RAG, Prompt Engineering, Vector DB (Pinecone, ChromaDB, FAISS), Embeddings, Streamlit
  
  • AI/ML Stack: Python, NumPy, Pandas, scikit-learn, Jupyter Notebooks
  
  • Frontend: React, TypeScript, JavaScript (ES6+), Redux, React Query, D3.js, Chart.js, MUI, Tailwind CSS
  
  • Backend: Node.js, Express, C#, ASP.NET Core, Web API, GraphQL, LINQ, Entity Framework
  
  • Cloud & DevOps: AWS, Azure, Docker, Jenkins, GitHub Actions
  
  • Databases: PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, SQL Server, AWS RDS, T-SQL
  
  • Security & Auth: JWT, OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, SAML, Keycloak, ADFS

Yes, I use the bookmarks. While bookmarking I try to categorise a url with hashtags (e.g #javascript). This makes the search easier based on grouping of hashtags.

Instead of working for a large corporation. Try working for small to mid size companies where you get to wear many hats and interact with many departments. This can be exciting and may open to other opportunities.

Other option is to go self-employed contract roles where you can set hours and bill rates. You can opt to work part-time and full-time based on your work-life balance and simultaneously fulfil your entrepreneurial impulses.

Whenever I want to make a decision, I put my thoughts on paper using a pencil. This clears my brain and helps me to make an informed decision after putting PROs and CONs of a choice/selection.

I am a full-stack engineer working with React. All the following worked. Not in any particular order.

1) LinkedIn 2) HN monthly hiring thread 3) Personal Portfolio / blog 4) GitHub

Main consistency about your bio across all platforms and keep engaging with subscribers or followers.

People do notice your activities and reach out to you when need arises.
