Hello, I'm Nikhil.

Applied AI Engineer & Web3 Builder

I build applied AI products that turn messy inputs into grounded decisions, useful developer workflows, and reliable full-stack experiences.

My edge is execution across AI and Web3: typed agent workflows, live APIs, smart-contract systems, transaction safety, and polished products.

Experience

👨‍💻

Independent & Open Source

Remote

Build applied-AI products from discovery to deployed demos: repository analysis, grounded retrieval, tool-use flows, structured outputs, live APIs, and polished full-stack interfaces.
Engineer Web3 workflows across Ethereum, Base, Solana, Sui, Stellar, and Somnia, including smart contracts, transaction previews, wallet data, and on-chain automation.
Use LangChain, Hugging Face, OpenAI, IBM watsonx.ai, Codex, Claude Code, and Cursor for implementation, evaluation, debugging, and failure analysis.
