I am an architect and computational designer at Jacobs in Gurugram, where I work with the Design Automation team on in-house AEC automation tools, much of it for bridges. I also coordinate citizen development for Jacobs across Asia. Before Jacobs I was a product analyst in computational design at Ramboll and practised as an architect in New Delhi. I studied Emergent Technologies and Design at the Architectural Association in London, where my work looked at climate-resilient construction for desertification prone regions, and in 2020 I founded Studio Code X, a consultancy on computational design for climate-conscious buildings.
Work
Below are some of my recent projects. Please request for the complete walkthrough of the locked projects.
01
Database-Connected AI Chatbot with Evals
Built a chatbot in five stages, from a plain OpenAI call to a system that remembers the conversation, calls tools and answers from a live database, then traced every answer in Langfuse and had AI judges score it.
02
Podcast Search MCP Server
Turned a semantic search engine over 1,009 product and technology podcast episodes into an MCP server, so an AI assistant can search the library, read transcripts, keep notes and run research briefs.
03
Personal AI Agent with Voice
Built an agent that searches and reads the web, remembers me between sessions, runs a job search from my resume, and answers the phone, with chat and voice sharing one memory.
04
Podcast RAG and Fine-Tuning
Built a question answering app over 149 podcast transcripts and saw why chunking matters, then fine-tuned a small open model to speak in a persona of my choosing.
Thoughts & Ideas
Notes on computational design: building automation tools for engineers, citizen development in a large firm, and designing for hot, dry places.
Designing With the Desert, Not Against It
What Citizen Development Asks of a Large Firm
Automation Tools Start With the Engineer, Not the Script
Experience
From architecture practice in New Delhi to computational design and design automation at Ramboll and Jacobs.
A design tool is only useful when it answers the question the designer is actually asking.
Stack
The models, databases and tools I used to build and ship the AI products on this page, from the first chatbot to RAG and fine-tuning.
