// About
Building AI that ships.
I'm Shashank, an AI engineer based in Hyderabad with a B.E. in Artificial Intelligence and Data Science from CBIT. I work across the full AI stack: from training research models to shipping production APIs and mobile apps.
My background spans conversational AI at Yellow.ai, security operations at Secureworks, data intelligence at Novartis, and independent consulting, giving me a rare cross-domain perspective on how AI actually lands in real organizations.
I believe the most valuable engineers are the ones who can move between research and production without losing either rigour or pragmatism. That's what I aim to be.
