About Me

I'm a Computer Science Engineer graduating with a 9.6/10 CGPA, currently working at DRDO (Defence Research & Development Organisation) as a Big Data & AI/ML Intern in Pune. Over the past year I've been building real-time streaming and observability systems using Python, Apache Kafka, Apache Spark/PySpark, Elasticsearch, and Kibana.

My core focus has been designing systems that don't just collect data but act on it — most notably ActLoop, an LLM-powered autonomous system-healing agent that can plan, evaluate, remember, and self-correct in response to live system anomalies. I enjoy working at the intersection of Big Data infrastructure and applied AI, and containerizing everything with Docker so it's reproducible from day one.

Big Data & AI/ML Intern

DRDO (Defence Research & Development Organisation) · Pune, Maharashtra

  • Engineered a real-time Big Data observability pipeline using Apache Kafka and PySpark to ingest and process CPU, disk, GPU, and system error telemetry.
  • Implemented real-time anomaly detection and event streaming, publishing normal and anomalous events through Kafka for continuous monitoring and analysis.
  • Developed ActLoop, an autonomous system-healing agent using LLM-based planning, critic evaluation, short-/long-term memory, anomaly detection, execution, verification, and retry workflows.
  • Integrated Elasticsearch, Kibana, and Streamlit for real-time system observability, remediation monitoring, and visualization, and containerized the distributed environment using Docker and Docker Compose.
