LLM
Llm building and deployment
  • Designed and implemented a Secure Payment Token Connector (PCI-Proxy ↔ Twilio Pay), enabling compliant payment data handling over telephony.
    Led security controls in line with PCI DSS, ensuring tokenized, zero-trust architecture.
    Built a flexible integration framework to support future payment providers.
    Result: Reduced risk exposure and enabled secure voice-based payments—a core feature for voice commerce.
  • Contributed to LLM-based Intent Classification, boosting natural language understanding accuracy for user utterances.
    Researched on the possiblities of llm based intent classification and later implementing production-ready classification systems.
    Result: Removed the need for traditional NLU training, significantly reducing time to production for customer bots.
  • Spearheaded LLM-powered Slot Extraction for voice assistants, allowing dynamic slot value extraction via natural language prompts.
    Designed fallback logic, type validation, and error handling for flexible yet safe slot capture.
    Result: Reduced reliance on rigid intent schemas; empowered cross-industry NLU customization.
  • Led architecture and rollout of CallGuard Lifecycle Manager, managing critical voice event timing and flow for PhoneV2.
    Built a resilient state machine to handle race conditions and terminal event filtering.
    Added observability through intelligent logging and state transitions.
    Result: Dramatically improved call stability and platform reliability.
  • Developed the Audit Dialog Analyzer and restructured legacy audit logs, enabling customers to clearly track changes and actions within their product.
    Result: Improved visibility into system events, enhanced compliance support, and empowered users with actionable audit insights.

  • Led backend feature development and platform improvements using Go, Node.js, and TypeScript within a high-scale, headless commerce environment.
    Contributed to core services powering API-first commerce experiences for global enterprise clients.
  • Improved performance and observability by analyzing MongoDB slow queries and implementing indexing strategies.
    Result: Boosted query speed and reduced load on backend systems, directly improving API response times for customer storefronts.
  • Wrote detailed RFCs and architectural design documents to guide development across teams.
    Impact: Enabled consistent design decisions and facilitated alignment across engineering squads.
  • Created a security plugin in Go to replace static secrets with dynamic token-based mechanisms.
    Result: Eliminated key security risks and aligned system behavior with modern best practices.
  • Maintained and enhanced internal communication tooling, reducing friction between distributed teams and improving dev workflow efficiency.
  • Collaborated cross-functionally with frontend, DevOps, and product teams to ensure seamless delivery of complex features.
    Impact: Drove successful integration across system boundaries and accelerated product iterations..
