Software Engineer @Nomura
Backend (Java/Camel, 60M+ trades) → production AI (RAG, agents, MCP). Sonar AutoFix + Nomura Star.
Started in Global Markets IT on Java and Spring Boot systems for trade reporting and reconciliation. Owned several Apache Camel adapters end to end, and sped up a trade-persistence service handling 60M+ records from ~3s inserts to ~40ms. Built Sonar AutoFix — an LLM tool in CI that auto-fixes SonarQube issues (~40% cleared; Nomura Star award). Now build production AI: RAG over enterprise docs, agent workflows, web search, and MCP tools that let models use Confluence, Jira, and internal systems.

Migrated chatbot AngularJS → React; APIs + 500+ tests; faster, more reliable UI.
Worked on a customer-facing chatbot in Bengaluru (two stints). Migrated it from AngularJS to React, wired up auth and data APIs, and wrote 500+ tests. Faster responses and fewer UI bugs in production.

CodeRAGgithub ↗
Search code by structure (methods + call graphs), not random text chunks. §case study ↗
Most RAG tools treat source code like plain text. CodeRAG indexes methods and how they call each other, so search follows real code structure. Includes APIs and a simple chat UI.

Sonar AutoFix @Nomura
CI bot that reads SonarQube issues and opens merge requests with fixes. §case study ↗
Runs inside GitLab CI. When SonarQube flags code smells or complexity, an LLM proposes a fix and opens an MR for review. Cleared about 40% of team issues and won a Nomura Star award.

ServerConnect @Nomura
MCP server so an AI assistant can check logs, metrics, and tickets for you. §case study ↗
A small MCP server I built for myself: ask Claude Code in plain language to pull logs over SSH, check Tomcat, read Grafana, or look up GitLab/Jira — instead of jumping across tools by hand.
