AI Systems Architect · AI Engineer

Hi, I'm Ketan.
I build systems that think.

A DevOps Specialist turned AI builder — designing agentic pipelines, RAG systems, and MCP servers on top of solid data engineering and CI/CD foundations.

About

I build AI systems that cut manual work and stay reliable in production.

I turn brittle, manual workflows into self-running systems. At CIBC I was promoted from Junior to DevOps Specialist by automating deployments and hardening CI/CD across SIT, UAT and production — [add your headline metric here: e.g. "cutting release time by X%"].

Now I apply that same reliability mindset to AI: agentic pipelines, RAG systems, and MCP servers, backed by real data engineering on Databricks and Delta Lake. The goal isn't a demo — it's an AI system a team can actually depend on.

I work spec-first: define the behavior, write the test, then build. It's how I keep AI systems dependable instead of magical-until-they-break.

Building in public — more soon.

Live projects are on the way. Each will land here with the problem it solved, how it was built, and a link to the code.
