Software Engineer Intern

Mentors Mantra
  • Engineered TypeScript backend microservices and REST APIs for an AI-driven mock test generation platform.
  • Implemented a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipeline in Python using OpenAI embeddings and FAISS to generate customized mock tests from curated exam datasets.
  • Optimized LLM prompts and fine-tuned RAG retrieval parameters, reducing API latency by 22% and lowering model hallucination rates by 14%.
  • Designed data extraction workers to collect, sanitize, and curate structured exam datasets from legacy sources.
