Aman Rajput
Forward Deployed AI Engineer
About
Forward-deployed full stack AI engineer. I embed with client teams and build production systems end to end: a WhatsApp computer-vision platform for ITC Limited (40K+ images a month, YOLO at 84% mAP@50), a fraud-detection SaaS for Fortza, and serverless AWS pipelines. Available immediately for contract or full-time roles.
Work Experience
- Owned the production lifecycle of a WhatsApp-based image analysis platform for ITC Limited, processing 40K+ images a month (about 50K at peak) through automated detection, categorization and an admin dashboard where manual approval gates user payouts.
- Restored the admin approval dashboard after RDS connection-pool exhaustion made it unusable at peak load, by resizing the pool, converting code to async and releasing connections before external API calls, with no added database scaling cost.
- Shipped an AWS SQS and Lambda pipeline to production in 2–3 days, with Terraform, that sends property hazard images in batches of 10 to an OpenAI vision model for structured-JSON analysis as a feature of Porch Moving Group's larger platform, owning the design, test cases and CloudWatch monitoring.
- Built the Next.js frontend, FastAPI backend, inference pipeline and API-key access layer for Fortza's fraud-detection platform alongside a senior ML engineer; a 10,000-row batch scores in about 2 seconds end to end.
- Protected Fortza's ML pipeline from oversized inputs and PostgreSQL parameter-limit errors with upload caps, ID-based data contracts and batched writes of 1,000 records.
- Fine-tuned YOLO on 1,070 custom-annotated shop images across four display classes, reaching 84% mAP@50 (86% precision, 79% recall).
- Owned delivery of the platform from architecture to deployment within a 4-member team, shipping dashboards, loan management flows and payment integrations.
- Built an in-house multi-factor authentication gateway for RDP from scratch in FastAPI, with a PowerShell firewall agent that allows only the verified user's IP.
- Presented demos and joined client meetings across the Americas and Europe, using technical documentation and interactive prototypes, resulting in repeat business.
Enterprise & Production Systems
Owned the production lifecycle of a platform that receives shop images over WhatsApp from across India, detects and categorizes ITC products automatically, and routes results to an admin dashboard where manual approval gates payouts.
Implemented one feature of Porch Moving Group's larger platform: an AWS SQS and Lambda pipeline that sends property hazard images in batches of 10 to an OpenAI vision model and returns structured JSON, shipped to production in 2–3 days.
Fortza sells this fraud-detection software as a service to partners, who use it inside their own organizations. Built the Next.js frontend, FastAPI backend, inference pipeline and external API-key access layer, working alongside a senior ML engineer on a direct client engagement.
Built from scratch in FastAPI: RDP stays blocked at the firewall until the user enters credentials and a time-limited one-time code sent to their registered email or phone.
Owned delivery of this finance and money-lending SaaS platform for foreign clients, from architecture to deployment, within a 4-member team: dashboards, loan management flows and payment integrations.
