Agentic AI Workforce

Coordinated LLM Agents that Automate Enterprise Operations

How I designed an agentic workforce on Databricks that automates workflows and manages tasks for a Fortune 500 client — cutting operational errors 30% and bottlenecks 77% while growing their analytics platform 72%.

Impact: Cut operational errors 30% and workflow bottlenecks 77% for a Fortune 500 client — and grew their analytics platform 72%.

Real-Time IoT Data Platform

Event-Driven Architecture for Sub-5-Second IoT at 99.99% Uptime

How I architected a real-time, event-driven API platform for IoT data achieving 99.99% uptime and sub-5-second end-to-end latency — building on predictive-maintenance work that cut equipment downtime 83%.

Impact: 83% less equipment downtime and ~10% lower backend cost, on a platform holding 99.99% uptime with sub-5-second insight.

ML Energy Forecasting

Time-Series Forecasting that Cut Energy Costs by $2M

How I built a machine-learning forecasting model for industrial energy consumption that reduced costs by $2M in a year — on consolidated data pipelines that cut redundancies 80% and project overhead 50%.

Impact: $2M in energy costs saved in one year, built on pipelines that cut data redundancy 80% and project overhead 50%.

Real-Time Object Detection

Building a Multi-Model Computer Vision System

How I built a real-time object detection system using YOLOv8 and TensorFlow.js, balancing accuracy, performance, and user experience across browser and server-side inference.

Impact: Real-time detection with zero inference infrastructure — webcam analysis runs entirely in the visitor's browser (~30 FPS on development hardware), so the demo scales at no cost.

Multi-Model NLP Pipeline

Sentiment Analysis, NER, and Keyword Extraction

Designing and implementing a production-ready NLP pipeline that combines spaCy, DistilBERT, and TF-IDF for comprehensive text analysis with efficient caching and error handling.

Impact: Automates what manual tagging could never keep up with: sentiment, entities, and keywords for every ingested article — caching cuts repeat-processing latency from ~230ms to under 10ms on this site's deployment.

Multi-Source Data Pipeline

Automated Ingestion, Processing, and Monitoring

Building a scalable data pipeline that ingests from Reddit and News APIs, with automated scheduling, robust error handling, and comprehensive observability.

Impact: Keeps the live analytics pages fresh with no manual work — 50K+ records a day at 99.8% pipeline uptime on this site's deployment, with every run recorded for observability.

Production LLM Platform

Shipping a Public AI Chat with Enterprise-Grade Guardrails

How I put an LLM-powered assistant on the open internet safely: layered rate limits, a hard daily token budget, prompt-injection hardening, a runtime kill switch, and graceful degradation — every guardrail verifiable in this repository's code and tests.

Impact: Caps worst-case daily LLM spend at a fixed 200K-token ceiling across three public demos — with per-IP and global rate limits, bounded concurrency, and a runtime kill switch, all verifiable in this repo.
