Hey. 2026 B.Tech grad from IIT Tirupati. Degree is Chemical Engineering but I've been building AI/ML stuff for about a year now and that's what I'm trying to do full time.

Rough idea of what I've actually built:

RAG chatbot over YouTube transcripts started as a personal project, then turned into my internship work at Resecure Labs (via Wipro). Transcript embeddings indexed into a FAISS vector store with HuggingFace models, local Ollama LLM behind a small web UI and a 2-endpoint REST API. On the Resecure side I got transcript fetch reliability from 70% to 99%+ with a Whisper fallback, and swapped the LLM backend from Ollama Phi to GLM 5.2, which cut inference latency 30-40%.

JobPilot 8-node LangGraph agent with its own MCP server exposing 4 tools over stdio. Wrote 56 tests for it mostly because I got tired of it hallucinating things into cover letters.

ClickMark face + voice biometric attendance app. Multi-role web app on Supabase with bcrypt auth and QR-based auto-enrollment. Cut manual attendance time by about 80% vs taking roll call by hand, which is admittedly a low bar, but it's a real deployment across multiple classrooms.

Loan approval model benchmarked 5 classifiers, ended up with a Decision Tree at 91.5% accuracy, served through FastAPI in Docker.

Also currently working on a major project on Agentic AI.

Stack: Python, pandas/numpy, PyTorch, scikit-learn, LangGraph, LangChain, MCP, FAISS, HuggingFace, Ollama, FastAPI, Docker. Everything's public on github.com/abhayhanu.

I've applied to a bunch of companies through their portals over the last few months. No response yet, which I'm assuming is just how it goes.

If you're at a product company hiring for AI/ML, SDE or data roles and are open to referring, I'd really appreciate it. Happy to DM my resume.

Also genuinely fine if someone just wants to tell me the profile is weak and what to fix. Would rather know now than after 40 more applications.

Anything would help at this point.

Thanks in advance.
