Mahi's Profile

About Me

I spent most of my childhood learning about math and science., I pursued Computer Science and Engineering and discovered AI during a workshop at IIT Hyderabad back in 2018. As a Research AI/ML Engineer at Hashmint, I developed a RAG model for Leaf 1.0.

Work Experience

I've worked on multiple impactful projects, including a Fake News Detection system using multimodal learning, a Book Recommendation engine powered by collaborative filtering, and iVote, a full-stack web application for secure digital voting. These projects strengthened my ability to build robust end-to-end ML pipelines, apply deep learning techniques effectively, and develop AI solutions aligned with real-world user needs.

Tools

I've worked with a broad range of tools (see more), but the ones I enjoy and frequently use as a framework include: Python, NumPy, pandas, scikit-learn, TensorFlow, HuggingFace, FastAPI (for deployment), Docker (for production), Git/GitHub.

Here's what they say about me!

"Mahi is a thorough professional. He was part of our AI research + dev team and led a team of 3 to create a highly optimised RAG model from scratch, customised for our hardware architecture. The deliverables included prototyping, research, and model tweaks to adhere to cost structures, understanding business needs, and further incorporating changes from UX feedback with seamless collaboration. Would highly recommend, kudos!"

"Mahi laid the foundational architecture for AI at HashMint with the launch of MintPDF, our Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) system that answers queries directly from user-uploaded documents. He engineered the entire backend pipeline, integrated OpenAI APIs, and built production-grade LLM workflows that made MintPDF fast, accurate, and reliable from day one. That foundation has been critical. Much of our rapid progress in AI since then has been possible because of the strong technical and architectural base Mahi set early on. He is a true 100x engineer who moves fast, solves hard problems, and quietly unlocks massive leverage for the entire team."
