Innovapath Inc - Dublin, CA May 2025- Present
AI/ML Engineer
Developed AI assistants using GenAI, LLMs, and multi-agent architectures to enable context-aware, personalized, and human-like conversational experiences. Engineered multi-agent systems enabling agents to plan, retrieve information, make decisions, validate actions, execute tools safely, track state, and collaborate on complex workflows. Built scalable agent workflows in LangGraph with branching logic, automated retries, and robust state management to ensure high-reliability across retrieval steps, tool interactions, and reasoning loops. Implemented stateful LangGraph agents with shared context, persistent state objects, and evolving memory structures to maintain coherent, long-running multi-turn conversations. Designed and deployed secure tool-use frameworks for AI agents using LangGraph and custom tool interfaces, ensuring safe and controlled external system interactions. Integrated Model Context Protocol (MCP) and secure tool interfaces to standardize agent-to-tool communication and enable safe access to enterprise systems. Architected a comprehensive memory system combining cache-backed short-term memory and database- backed long-term memory to deliver reliable and consistent conversational history management. Implemented full-stack observability for multi-agent systems using Prometheus and Grafana, enabling monitoring of prompt quality, performance metrics, and human feedback loops. Built reliability safeguards including fallback mechanisms, error-handling strategies, and safe-shutdown procedures to maintain agent stability during failures or model drift. Developed diagnostic pipelines to isolate issues across retrieval layers, agent graphs, LLM responses, vector databases, tool calls, and cloud environments (AWS EKS, Kubernetes), significantly improving debugging efficiency for complex agentic systems.
