> Software Engineer (AI) | LLM & RAG Systems | Production-Scale GenAI | Distributed AI Infrastructure

Location: New York, New York, United States
Profile: https://flows.cv/maheshbabukambala

I’m Mahesh Babu Kambala, a Software Engineer (AI)specializing in building large-scale, production-grade intelligent systems that operate reliably in high-traffic, distributed environments.

With 4+ years of experience across AI and cloud-native engineering, I design and deploy LLM-powered platforms, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) architectures, vector search systems, and AI-integrated microservices that deliver measurable business impact.

At American Express, I engineered scalable RAG pipelines leveraging LLMs and vector databases to power contextual financial knowledge retrieval at enterprise scale. I optimized inference workflows, reduced latency across AI-driven APIs, and strengthened system resilience within distributed cloud environments handling mission-critical workloads.

My work sits at the intersection of:

LLM application engineering

Embedding pipelines & vector indexing

Secure AI model deployment

Distributed systems for AI workloads

High-availability cloud architectures

I focus on turning AI research capabilities into production-ready, observable, scalable systems — integrating model serving, caching, monitoring, and failover strategies into real-world enterprise environments.

Core Expertise:
Python | LLM Systems | RAG Architecture | LangChain | Vector Databases (FAISS, Pinecone, Weaviate) | AWS | Kubernetes | Docker | FastAPI | ML Infrastructure | Distributed Systems | Generative AI | Cloud MLOps | SQL/NoSQL

I thrive in environments where scale, reliability, and innovation intersect — building AI platforms that move beyond prototypes and into mission-critical production systems.

📩 Open to collaborating on advanced AI infrastructure, scalable LLM platforms, and next-generation intelligent systems.
